Nov 10, 2016 Steam not picking up my microphone Hello! For a few days Steam doesn't pick up my microphone anymore, which is annoying when playing online games like DayZ or Arma. My mic is a AT2020 XLR plugged to a Behringer Xenyx 820 and a Asus Xonar D1 Soundcard Win 10 64 bit. It all worked perfectly fine until 2 days ago when I switched from my USB mic.
Try again after each step
- In the App Store, tap Updates. Find GarageBand in the list. If you see Update next to GarageBand, tap Update. If not, skip this step.
- If you use Audio Units Extensions or Inter-App Audio apps as instruments or effects with GarageBand, check with the manufacturer for updates.
- If you use an external audio interface, disconnect it. If GarageBand works, you might need to update or service your audio interface.
- Delete any Audio Units Extensions or Inter-App Audio apps.
- Create a new song, then play it. If it works, check your other songs and solo tracks to see which one caused the issue.
- Reset GarageBand. Go to Settings > GarageBand, then tap Reset GarageBand. When you reset GarageBand, your song files, presets, or patches aren't affected. Other custom settings, such as the 24-bit audio resolution and Multitrack Recording settings, are reset to factory defaults.

Garageband Doesn' T Pick Up Mac Microwave
I am trying to set up my recording equipment and I have encountered difficulty getting garageband to recognize that I have a mic plugged into my interface. My mbox mini is hooked up to my computer, garageband allows me to use it for my audio output (monitors I have hooked up to the mbox), but i have not been able to pick up any sound with my external mic (an AT2035 cardioid capacitor mic).
I have selected the mbox as the audio input for garageband. When I go to the real instrument track info, the three options I have for input source are mono 1, mono 2, and stereo 1/2. None of those three options have resulted in sound being picked up by garageband. None of those options allow me to control the recording level bar which remains dimmed. I am very new to recording and don't know where to begin in solving this problem. I would be so thankful for any help.
