We can probably drop a thick tube covered in a heatshield material that contains a microphone and a sound level sensor. Eventually the tube will reach a point where it will get crushed due to the enormous pressure in the atmosphere

ie, a calibrated microphone.

Yes - it's not a trivial piece of engineering - and depends entirely on the altitude region of interest.

And you're best off integrating this onto a sonde/entry probe of some sort - a bare microphone in a tube will need a further other non-trivial items.
