Any ol' audio detector/filter/comparitor would do. Nothing fancy like the "SmartVox" we use for Shuttle audio (which doesn't work on amplitude, but rather changes in audio frequency), just something that says "I saw peaks over 4 kHz" or "average deviation over the past 5 seconds was at least 1.5 kHz".
