    I don’t know the internal workings of the echo, I was responding to a comment that said it “operates a transistor”. Which is way different than it being an input to a microcontroller.

    If the button is just connected to a transistor, it’s not software controllable, since transistors are electronical devices that don’t interpret any software. A microcontroller does execute software. There’s a big difference.
