From the project
ESP-32 based controller for WLED or other neopixel things
This addon board allows you to expand the ESP-32_WLED-Controller with the Sound Reactive feature https://github.com/atuline/WLED. The board is practically stacked on top of the controller using 2.54mm pin and socket headers.
WLED Sound Reactive comes with an additional configuration menu. For Squelch and Gain, you'll need to configure your own settings. Microphone type is Generic Analog. The Analog Input Pin is on GPIO36.
