I had lost power for a bit due to Irma and once I got bored with restringing my guitars, I decided to make a Eurorack module featuring the AI wonders of Alexa. It crashes when you ask it the weather, and to my disappointment, due to most of Alexa's features being server-side, I was unable to get her to trigger gates or CV via the board's GPIO. So this is what I was left with.

I'd put a tutorial up, but honestly with the Echo Dot costing $40 on sale and having a 3.5mm jack, you'd probably spend more on parts if you DIY'd it.

Regardless, if you DO want to make your own Echo, here's the git: https://github.com/alexa/
