Hello developers, I am working on a medical device research project in which I am trying to perform complex computational audition to selectively isolate sounds. This is termed "auditory beamforming", and in order for this to be possible I need to be able to record from multiple inputs simultaneously, as the necessary information is hidden in the tiny differences between each channel based on the mic location.
I think I have run into a snag though, as even though the Android documentation talks about multichannel recording through USB audio devices, it seems that there is currently only support for mono or stereo inputs currently. This, as you can imagine, is very concerning to me. And if it is true, it basically means my project is dead in the water. Does anyone know if it is now possible, or will be possible soon, to be able to record flexibly from any number of microphone channels simultaneously? I know there are a couple of proprietary USB drivers floating around that claim they can do this, but I was really hoping for official Android functionality for this. Thanks for any help you can provide -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
