1. A mobile communication device comprising:
- a memory storing instructions;
a plurality of microphones including at least a first microphone disposed at a first end of the mobile communication device and at least a second microphone disposed at a second end of the mobile communication device, the first end of the mobile communication device being an end of the mobile communication device that is opposite the second end of the mobile communication device;
a display; and
at least one processor that, when executing the instructions, is configured to;
receive an input for selecting an audio recording mode among a plurality of audio recording modes respectively corresponding to at least one of a plurality of audio-beamforming directions;
receive an input for initiating to obtain audio signals via at least two of the plurality of microphones;
obtain, based on the selected audio recording mode, audio signals via the at least two of the plurality of microphones;
process, based on the selected audio recording mode, the audio signals obtained via the at least two of the plurality of microphones to generate audio data;
store the audio data; and
while the audio signals are being obtained, display, on the display, a visual effect for indicating at least one direction from which to obtain the audio signals, based on the selected audio recording mode.
