/**
 * Automatic Gain Control (AGC).
 * <p>Automatic Gain Control (AGC) is an audio pre-processing which automatically normalizes the
 * output of the captured signal by boosting or lowering input from the microphone to match a preset
 * level so that that the output signal level is virtually constant.
 * AGC can be used by applications where the input signal dynamic range is not important but where
 * a constant strong capture level is desired.
 * <p>An application creates a AutomaticGainControl object to instantiate and control an AGC
 * engine in the audio framework.
 * <p>To attach the AutomaticGainControl to a particular {@link android.media.AudioRecord},
 * specify the audio session ID of this AudioRecord when constructing the AutomaticGainControl.
 * The audio session is retrieved by calling
 * {@link android.media.AudioRecord#getAudioSessionId()} on the AudioRecord instance.
 * <p>On some devices, an AGC can be inserted by default in the capture path by the platform
 * according to the {@link android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource} used. The application can
 * query which pre-processings are currently applied to an AudioRecord instance by calling
 * {@link android.media.audiofx.AudioEffect#queryPreProcessings(int)} with the audio session of the
 * AudioRecord.
 * <p>See {@link android.media.audiofx.AudioEffect} class for more details on
 * controlling audio effects.
