# Remote STT and TTS {% hint style="warning" %} This feature is experimental. {% endhint %} Enabling "Remote TTS" and "Remote STT" in the options make Mycroft-GUI act as a routing client for sending and receiving raw audio. This is intended to be used with a remotely hosted mycroft-core instance on the local network. Please note, this is completely experimental. It is being worked on for running Mycroft-GUI on the hardware with limited on-board processing power such as the PinePhone, however it should work on any Linux system. ### Requirements You must have mycroft-core hosted on a different local machine. On the device running mycroft-core, you need: * [Wave Client](https://github.com/AIIX/wave-client): should be installed in /mycroft/clients/wave/ and entries added to start it up in `start-mycroft.sh` and `stop-mycroft.sh` * [Remote-STT Skill](https://github.com/AIIX/remote-stt) * [Remote-TTS Skill](https://github.com/AIIX/remote-tts) * Changes to your `mycroft.conf`: `{ "remote": true, "remote-server": "your.local.ipaddress.here" }`� --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
