Python read microphone

Question

I am trying to make python grab data from my microphone, as I want to make a random generator which will use noise from it. So basically I don't want to record the sounds, but rather read it in as a datafile, but realtime.

I know that Labview can do this, but I dislike that framework and am trying to get better at python.

Any help/tips?

You may be interested by PyAudio. I think you can get some bytes from the stream.

Here is an interesting example

The OP doesn't want to record speech, they want to use audio as a source of random data. – Martijn Pieters Dec 05 '16 at 09:19
