Just for kicks, a parabolic mic made from Dollar Store parts and the RS
33-3028 lavalier microphone. Total cost is under twenty dollars.

You might look for the words 'compressor' or 'limiter'.  A compressor
will reduce the dynamic range at a controlled rate, from a set
threshold level.  A limiter will clamp down the output above a set
threshold level (infinite compression).
