Posted By: Jimmy S No Microphone signal in BIAB [Resolved] - 12/11/19 12:50 AM
When trying to record an audio track in BIAB, I am unable to get any signal from my microphone. I have lots of signal everywhere else (audio interface, other software,etc..). My inputs are set correctly but I get nothing.

Thanks,
Jimmy

Under Audio > Record Audio > Test recording level, is the Microphone Enabled and shown as plugged in, and do you get any response on the VU meters?

Try this:

Hi Jimmy,

You stated that you have an audio interface. Are you sure that it set up correctly? Just in case here is how to check:
1- options/MIDI audio Driver setup
2- Audio settings
3- Audio drivers
4- Select you inputs and outputs

If this is OK then proceed to Video Tracks instructions.
It not OK then select your input and output sources then proceed to Video Tracks instructions.

PS - It helps if you list all of your specs, things like OS, audio interface name, etc. Info like that can help those whom are trying to help you.

Thanks for your suggestions. I have reviewed all of my settings again (for the 100th time) and they are all correct. My audio interface performs correctly in all areas of sound processing except BIAB. I am using a Native Instruments Komplete Audio 6. Iknow the sound is reaching my computer as I have tested it in Windows and it works perfectly. I am really at a loss on this one.

Thanks,
Jimmy

I would check to see if all of your software for the device is up to date.

Success. It seems the drivers for my interface had become corrupted. As soon as I reinstalled the driver I had lots of signal. I don't understand why only BIAB was affected but all is well. Thanks to everyone for their help.

That's awesome Jimmy! Thanks for letting us know. BIAB seems to be more sensitive to audio driver issues than other music software I've seen. Glad you got it working.
