Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for receiving a signal from each microphone of a plurality of microphones, thus defining a plurality of signals. One or more inter-microphone gain-based augmentations may be performed on the plurality of signals, thus defining one or more inter-microphone gain-augmented signals.
