A system for, and method of, noisy automatic speech recognition employing joint compensation of additive and convolutive distortions and a digital signal processor incorporating the system or the method. In one embodiment, the system includes: (1) an additive distortion factor estimator configured to estimate an additive distortion factor, (2) an acoustic model compensator coupled to the additive distortion factor estimator and configured to use estimates of a convolutive distortion factor and the additive distortion factor to compensate acoustic models and recognize a current utterance, (3) an utterance aligner coupled to the acoustic model compensator and configured to align the current utterance using recognition output and (4) a convolutive distortion factor estimator coupled to the utterance aligner and configured to estimate an updated convolutive distortion factor based on the current utterance using differential terms but disregarding log-spectral domain variance terms.
