Hello, I am putting this into Q and A, since I am not sure if it's a bug or if I am just doing something wrong.
Thank you so much for this awesome library.
I started playing with it and I'm trying to build a simple Dalek voice changer.
As a first step, I am simply trying to copy the microphone data to a speaker.
I tried reading the analog input and streaming it as PWM, but that doesn't work as expected.
I made sure I am using the correct pin for the analog input by running the base_adc_average_mono_serial example, which works.
I made sure I am using the correct pin for the analog output by running the streams_generator_pwm example, which works.
In order to have repeatable data, instead of microphone I am using a signal generator with a DC offset. I verified that the adc sees the data correctly with the base_adc_average_mono_serial.
There is low volume noise coming from the speaker. The oscilloscope shows a waveform with a roughly similar shape to the one I am putting in, extremely noisy, low amplitude, chopped up (discontinuities in the waveform, as if you cut pieces of it and stitched them back together) and at a much lower frequency, suggesting a sampling issue.
Am I just doing something really dumb? Or is this combination not supported? Or is it a bug?
I just need a combination of an analog input and "analog-compatible" (i.e. lm386 with an aliasing filter compatible) output.
As far as I remember, the ESP32 does not support ADC DMA with I2S PDM, since ADC DMA uses the I2S0 memory and furthermore PDM is only supported by I2S0 - that's why I tried my luck with the PWM instead.
I tried enabling "auto_center_read", didnt help.
I tried changing the sample frequency between 8kHz and 44100Hz, didn't help.
I tried changing the input resolution. 8bit (which you say is not supported by most the classes) makes the noise much louder.
Thank you very much!! If you need me to do some more tests, just let me know

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
Both the timer and the PWM APIs have changed: I could identify that the timer was not working.
I committed a correction to address the issue with the timer.
Please note that there is quite a difference to the requested frequency: e.g. Sampling Rate 44100 vs eff: 43476
I am not sure how to address this when you need it to match. Have a look at the code. Maybe you have an idea...
Maybe you could do some resampling or use a frequency which does not need any fraction of us (e,g 20000hz or 40000hz)
Hello, thank you. I will probably need to fix this eventually. That being said, I don't think the timer is working in the new Arduino ESP32 core (v. 3), which makes it a bit harder to debug. I will file a bug report and investigate.
Discussed in #1480
