A teleconferencing audio bridge.

An arrangement for a teleconferencing bridge (108) allows one or more users (101-106) to control at least one characteristic of at least some of the input signals received by the bridge, such that the output signals received by each user in a teleconference is a user-controlled combination of all the input signals, including the changed input signals. The arrangement allows a rich set of audio bridging features to be provided cost-effectively. Those features include subconferencing, monitoring, whispering, muting, complex gain control, and pseudo stereo.
