Usually "microphone array," refers to the built-in microphones in a laptop or touchpad computer, especially when there is more than one microphone (an "array" of 2 or more microphones) built in. However, you can't take that for gospel as Windows sometimes identifies audio devices...

Update: The patch that I submitted has passed preliminary testing and has been marked as "patch_ready". The next step is "code review" by one of the developers, which involves checking that the code tackles the issue in the correct way and meets coding standards (it's a simple pa...
