Abstract
A system and method for switching between multiple audio input signals to select one of the audio input signals as audio output signal are disclosed which include receiving the audio input signals, receiving a control signal, and switching controlled by the control signal from a first one of the audio input signals to a second one of the audio input signals. Prior to switching, the first one of the audio input signals is muted and upon switching, the second one of the audio input signals is unmuted in one of multiple unmute modes based on one or more signal parameters characterizing the second one of the audio input signals.
