    Has anyone tried this on a Pi3?

    I also have some Pi Zeros with mic boards, so might try them as satellites and give this another go

      The important thing is the main server, that’s the advantage of satellites.

      Now I haven’t tried it yet, but with Rhasspy, you had the choice between the satellite doing wakeword recognition (which means that a pi zero 1 would be too slow), or doing it on the server (which would mean permanently sending all audio the satellite picks up to the server, and the extra latency that adds)

      A pi3 is really powerful enough for wakeword recognition
