Abstract
A method for adapting a gain of at least one channel audio input signal in order to generate an N channel audio output signal, wherein at least one channel audio input signal includes a speech input channel, in which speech signal components, if present in the at least one channel audio input signal, are present, and comprising other audio input channels. A perceived loudness of the at least one channel audio input signal is dynamically determined and it is determined whether speech signal components are present in the speech input channel. If this is the case the gain of the speech input channel is adapted differently compared to the gain of the other audio input channels.
