Abstract

See full text

An audio system is configured to support a number of wireless microphones, and each of the wireless microphones has one or more touch sensitive mute switches and a touch sensitive mute guard band switch. The mute guard band switch is connect to an electrically conductive surface that is proximate to a microphone peripheral surface that a user is likely to touch when they move the microphone. Logical instructions running in conjunction with a DSP associated with the microphone cause the audio system to override any mute commands it receives from any of the mute switches during the time that the guard band switch is activated.
