The invention discloses a pick-up device and method. The pick-up device comprises a digital signal processor, at least one microphone, multiple amplifiers and multiple analog-digital converters. Each microphone is used for receiving an audio signal and sending the audio signal to the amplifier corresponding to the microphone. Each amplifier is used for amplifying the received corresponding audio signal and sending the amplified audio signal to the analog-digital converter corresponding to the amplifier. Each analog-digital converter is used for converting the received corresponding audio signal into a digital signal and sending the digital signal to a digital signal processor. The digital signal processor is used for receiving the digital signals sent by the analog-digital converters, confirming the digital signals where clipping is not conducted from the received digital signals, and confirming output signals according to gain values corresponding to the digital signals where clipping is not conducted. The pick-up device can have good pick-up performance in various pick-up scenes.
