FIELD: radio engineering, communication.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to means of filtering a multichannel audio signal, having a speech channel and at least one non-speech channel. The method includes determining at least one attenuation control value which serves as a feature of the extent of similarity between speech-related content which is defined by the speech channel and speech-related content which is defined by the non-speech channel; attenuating the non-speech channel in response to at least one attenuation control value; scaling the raw attenuation control signal (e.g. a gain control signal with suppression of a weak signal with a stronger signal) for the non-speech channel in response to at least one attenuation control value.
EFFECT: high speech intelligibility defined by a signal.
