    @strawberry-3.141

    What do I need?
    Do I need a specific microphone?
    If I get a webcam with a built in microphone, will that work?
    If the webcam microphone will work, which webcam do you recommend?

    I just want to have everything I need before I try anything, thanks.

        I actually got it working on a laptop with Ubuntu so I am now trying it on the Pi 3 with MMM-voice and a Logitech USB microphone. It loads with “Initializing” next to the microphone and for a second it shows “Ready, choose a mode.” but then it changes to Error. I tried to make it the default in Audio Device Settings on the Pi3 but it keeps going back to "bcm2835 (ALSA mixer) (Default). It won’t keep the “AK5370 (Alsa mixer)” as default.

        
         0 [ALSA           ]: bcm2835 - bcm2835 ALSA
                              bcm2835 ALSA
         1 [AK5370         ]: USB-Audio - AK5370
                              AKM AK5370 at usb-3f980000.usb-1.2, full speed
        

        I’m going to bed!

            I guess I should have mentioned that I already have that setting. I was tired. Does this mean that microphone is not compatible?

                That would be great but I have to run to work for a few hours. I’ll be back in about 4 hours. So, perhaps later if you are available. I’d appreciate that.

                    @strawberry-3.141

                    I tested my microphone on the Pi by doing this:

                    pi@Pi3:~ $ arecord -D plughw:1,0 test.wav
                    Recording WAVE 'test.wav' : Unsigned 8 bit, Rate 8000 Hz, Mono
                    ^CAborted by signal Interrupt...
                    pi@Pi3:~ $ 
                    

                    That gave me this: 0_1489005574631_soundfile.JPG

                    Which sounds ok. Clear, and not too much white noise.

                    As long as my Audio Device Settings looks like this:0_1489005776320_audiodevicesettings.JPG

                    I am not in debug mode

                    {
                         			module: 'MMM-voice',
                         			position: 'top_right',
                         			config: {
                             		microphone: 1,
                    			keyword: 'MAGIC MIRROR', // UPPERCASE ONLY
                    			timeout: 15
                         		}
                     		},
                    

                    However, I am getting this: 0_1489006683272_fairest.JPG
                    0_1489006704245_voiceup.JPG
                    0_1489006738923_who.JPG

                    At least we got it working
