Hi everybody,
I've just installed Pi Zero WH + IQAudio CodecZero + streambox unstable version 4.0-dev with 2 primo EM172 mics. Its indeed amazing (ALSA Mixer gains) and you dont need a expensive separate soundrecorder etc.
Look for the live stream here: https://locus.creacast.com:9443/zwolle_sonic_heartbeat.ogg https://locus.creacast.com:9443/zwolle_sonic_heartbeat.ogg
The next step is to place the installation at a distance of about 200m behind my house. (quieter, further from traffic)
The problem to overcome is setting up a wifi connection over this distance with the raspberry pi zero. Anyone experience with this?
Regards,
Wijnand (NL, Zwolle)

Just a quick note to confirm that I tried the setup that Grant and Udo described. (Pi Zero WH + IQAudio CodecZero + streambox unstable version 4.0-dev). The streambox image is amazing. They even brought the relevant ALSA Mixer gains into the web UI with routing presets for the onboard MEMS mic, stereo electret, and aux input. Everything worked *EXCEPT* I needed to restart the streambox after selecting my inputs in the UI. I lost an hour in ALSA Mixer trying to figure out why my signal was mono instead of stereo after switching from the default MEMS mic to stereo electrets. There's a cryptic note on page 15 of the "IQAudio Product Brief" pdf that hints at this, but it may be a good thing to add to the web UI too? Also, There are HPF and compression (ALC) settings buried in the mixer that may be handy for keeping levels in check on unattended streams. Haven't spent time with it but I'm excited. Thanks to all involved with this. It feels like a real turning point to have cheap hardware and great software working together so well. -Zach On 2021-05-12 06:36, Grant Smith wrote:hi all a quick note to confirm other people's experiences, based on udo's recipe, in case useful: for me the Pi Zero WH - the version with pre soldered header and wifi - and the IQAudio codec zero https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/iqaudio-codec-zero <https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/iqaudio-codec-zero> work perfectly out of the box with the latest disk image from Stef @LS Dev This is the one called: unstable version 4.0-dev http://locusonus.org/streambox/ <http://locusonus.org/streambox/> For me it is in fact stable with dns and wifi issues resolved and the sound is remarkable from this card with the PUI capsules: https://eu.mouser.com/datasheet/2/334/AOM-5024L-HD-R-1219369.pdf <https://eu.mouser.com/datasheet/2/334/AOM-5024L-HD-R-1219369.pdf> Sounds clean and good running with a mains adaptor or a battery best wishes grant_______________________________________________ Locustream / Locus Sonus Streaming Project http://locusonus.org/ <http://locusonus.org/> To unsubscribe, send a message to locustream-request@nujus.net <mailto:locustream-request@nujus.net> with unsubscribe in the subject or follow instructions here https://nujus.net/cgi-bin/mailman/options/locustream <https://nujus.net/cgi-bin/mailman/options/locustream> _______________________________________________-- -- Mike Bullock tapping on a screen in my hand
