How do you use the SPresence's Audio Library with the Main Board?

How I make use of the SPresence's Audio library to record audio with the Main Board? (The documentation only describes the extension board's use) I currently have an electret microphone in one of the GPIO pins and want to record the audio in a MP3 file.

Hi @Vraj-Patel
Unfortunately there are only a few dedicated pins that can be used as microphone inputs. It is not possible to take any GPIO and connect a microphone to it. This is because to use a microphone you need special analogue electronics/amplifiers inside the chip that can read/sense and convert the very weak signals that comes from a microphone.
If you want to use a electret microphone you would either have to use the extension board to connect the mic to or design your own board in a format that suits you.
I would recommend you to have a look and study the the Spresense schematics both for the main and extension board to get an idea of what external components that have been used for the microphone circuitry.
