Test your env

To ensure that you can record your voice, run the following command to capture audio input from your microphone:

rec test.wav

Press CTRL-C after capturing a sample of your voice.

Then play the recorded audio file

mplayer test.wav

You can then test that your Kalliope is working by using the "bonjour" order integrated in the default brain. Start kalliope:

kalliope start

Kalliope will load default settings and brain, the output should looks the following

Starting event manager
Events loaded
Starting Kalliope
Press Ctrl+C for stopping
Starting REST API Listening port: 5000

Then speak the hotwork out loud to wake up Kalliope. By default, the hotwork is "Kalliopé" with the french pronunciation. If the trigger is successfully raised, you'll see "say something" into the console.
