Python 3 - Mac OS X 10.6.x - How to capture microphone input raw sample data?

Greetings to all of you and thank you in advance.

I am currently doing some preliminary research on capturing microphone input data using Python 3. Are there any currently developed libraries/modules that can support this? I reviewed PyAudio, but it apparently is not being further developed.

My use-case for this is to build a morse code decoder to be used with existing receivers plugged in via the microphone input jack of my MacBook Pro.

I do not need any sample code, just a little nudge in the right direction. Any help with this will be greatly appreciated.

A great audio library for Python is Gstreamer. Here's a question that will help you with microphone input: How to fix Gstreamer to capture microphone audio and buffer or dump as raw file, when i am talking it does not save anything

I do not believe that there are Python 3 Gstreamer bindings, though. You will either have to swtich to Python 2, or modify the existing bindings yourself to get them working with Python 3.
