[AG-TECH] Echo canceller

[Robert Olson]

And if you're clever, you can make the button cause the gentner to mute the 
mic, and make the gentner drive the LED based on mute status. This way, the 
gentner is always listening on the mic and doing it's EC/ambient noise 
level adaptation measurements.

There's an appnote on the gentner/clearone website on doing this.
