    • Getting Microphone Data (decibels) from M5StickC Plus or AtomU

      I have the M5StickC Plus (https://shop.m5stack.com/products/m5stickc-plus-esp32-pico-mini-iot-development-kit) and soon the AtomU (https://shop.m5stack.com/products/atomu-esp32-development-kit-with-usb-a). My goal is to write something to capture noise levels in decibels and graph that data externally. However I want to do that with Micropython since I'm more familiar with python or even blockly at this point. I just can't figure out how. Here's the blockly/micropython code to just capture data on button press and nothing more...

      from m5stack import *
      from m5ui import *
      from uiflow import *
      from easyIO import *
      
      setScreenColor(0x111111)
      
      while True:
        if btnA.isPressed():
          M5Led.on()
          lcd.clear()
          lcd.print((analogRead(34)), 0, 0, 0xffffff)
        else:
          M5Led.off()
          lcd.clear()
        wait_ms(2)
      

      The problem is that it shows a number 1270 but that doesn't fluctuate based on sound. It's a constant number. Why?

      Looking at https://docs.m5stack.com/en/core/m5stickc_plus it shows that GPIO34 is the pin. Do you need to activate/enable this pin?

      Also, I don't see any mention of analogRead in github https://github.com/m5stack/M5Stack_MicroPython/search?q=analogRead&type=code so I don't even know where to look for this in code. Closest example of using microphone I can find is in Arduino https://github.com/m5stack/M5StickC-Plus/blob/master/examples/Basics/Micophone/Micophone.ino but can't figure out how to translate that into micropython. There is no i2s_read in the micropython library which is what Arduino uses. Maybe it's some permutation of machine.ADC or machine.Pin?
