+## WM8960 soundcard support
+
+Support for WM8960 based sound cards such as the WM8960 Hi-Fi Sound Card HAT for Raspberry Pi from Waveshare, and ReSpeaker 2 / 4 / 6 Mics Pi HAT from Seeed Studio, can be enabled in `local.conf`
+
+ ```conf
+ MACHINE_FEATURES += "wm8960"
+ ```
+
+You may need to adjust volume and toggle switches that are off by default
+
+ ```bash
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Headphone',0 80%,80%
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Speaker',0 80%,80%
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Left Input Mixer Boost' toggle
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Left Output Mixer PCM' toggle
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Right Input Mixer Boost' toggle
+ amixer -c1 sset 'Right Output Mixer PCM' toggle
+ ```
+
+Audio capture on ReSpeaker 2 / 4 / 6 Mics Pi HAT from Seeed Studio is very noisy.
