1. An apparatus comprising:
at least one processor; and
at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following:
capture an audio scene using multiple microphones;
determine that the captured audio scene has unacceptable detected noise;
in dependence upon the determining that the captured audio scene has unacceptable detected noise, search a plurality of combinations of the multiple microphones and a plurality of physical rotation angles of the multiple microphones to determine a combination of a first set of one or more microphones and a first physical rotation angle of the one or more microphones that captures the audio scene with acceptable detected noise, wherein the determination that the one or more microphones captures the audio scene with acceptable detected noise is based on a cost function; and
control the physical rotation angle of the microphones to be the first physical rotation angle of the microphones and capture the audio scene by the combination of the first set of one or more microphones and the first physical rotation angle of the one or more microphones.
