Bring up the volume control (small yellow speaker) on your task bar.click options and then check the mic box and it should work.
Just buy a 3.5mm to XLR adapter!!!

I can’t specifically say for microphone but I love my Sennheiser wireless guitar system it is awesome, so I think and have heard the wire mic system is top notch as well
the system doesn’t care what mic you have only the fact that the mic cable is plugged into the mic port and is enabled have used mic only and mic plus headphones both work very well
Hi Glasses! – Mixers do a couple things in a studio setting:1. Mic Preamps – used for boosting the relatively weak microphone or instrument (such as an electric guitar) signal to a usable level.2. Phantom Power – used to operate a condenser style studio mic.3. Equalization – used to precisely adjust the tone of your sound at certain frequencies.4. Mix – like the name says… adjust different input levels with respect to one another and output them mixed together.Although technically you can use the microphone that comes with your computer, this will never sound like a recording that you’d hear on an album. Those computer mics are optimized for the human speaking voice, not for the vocal singing range or full instrumental range of a piano or guitar.Here are some basic home studio setups that you can use as a reference as you get started. These setups will give you a much improved sound and are probably less expensive than you think.
The mic plugs into one of the large 3-pin mic inputs, turn up the ‘gain’, level and ‘main’ to hear the sound if you have an amp and speakers attached.If recording straight to a stereo input use the two RCA’s marked ‘REC OUT’ – if your mic is a condenser, switch phantom power on. For testing put headphones into the ‘phones’ socket.You have two more optional outputs ‘main’ goes to your main amplifier, ‘control room’ is a second output which you could use for foldback…Hopefully that will help??
For cheaper electronics parts searchhttp://tigerdirect.comand im sure youll find good stuff
Hello there,You need the amp.Later,
YES!!!…The mixer has “faders” and mic pre amps that will push/turn up your levels. Live on stage a monitor will do it.$100 = http://www.americanmusical.com/sort–s-behringer-mixers-8-track.htmlhttp://www.americanmusical.com/sort–s-pa-monitor.htmlhttp://audacity.sourceforge.net free recorderhttp://www.soundclick.com/bands/pageartist.cfm?bandID=168234
It’s usually done via the mixer, you CAN use an echo box in between the mic and mixer a bit like you would with a guitar effects box, but it’s better if the sound guy has control over it at the mixer.The best way to do it is to ’send’ a signal from your vocal channel (Aux ’send’) to your effects box. You can then have the effects come back through a ‘return’ or plug it into a spare channel.Using this method means that you can send any channel on your mixer through the effects box at different levels. The spare channel handles all the output from the effects box on one fader.
I’ve used the XLR to 1/4″ adapters many times and never experienced hum. I think there must be another factor at work…electrical interference, poorly grounded wiring in the building, bad mic cable, etc. I’d start trying to eliminate all the possibilities one-at-a-time. If you connect the mic directly in using the XLR input, is it hum free…or just lower hum? When I use the adapters, I find the inputs aren’t as sensitive and I have to crank the volume. If this is the case with you, the hum may be present in every input but only noticeable on the ones you have to turn up……which coincidentally are the unbalanced 1/4″ ones. Regarding the hum from your guitar, if you have single coil pickups a DI unit isn’t going to eliminate it. The pickups themselves are the source of the noise. If you’re using humbuckers (dual coil) then there shouldn’t be any hum unless there are other factors at work…like bad grounding or something. Try setting up in a different building and if necessary, get a Furman power conditioner: http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Furman-M8X-Power-Conditioner?sku=181045 I’ve gigged in a lot of clubs with bad power and never had to use a Furman, but it would have come in handy a few times.
Audacity!!!
Price is just one issue – an equally important issue is this: what are you going to use it for? If you’re going to record just one instrument or voice at the time, then why involve the extra hassle and cost of a mixer. With the Samson G-track USB condenser microphone, you can even record two inputs at once (without latency). You may want an outboard mixer if you need external effects or EQ. However, you have to invest quite a lot of money to get a decent mixer with good EQ.For adding effects and EQ after recording, you can just as well use software based DAW (digital audio workstation) programs.
