How to use my usb connected mic instead of my laptop mic

mymusic193 wrote on 5/16/2014, 10:53 PM

So I was able to connect my Samson Microphone to my laptop (Toshiba model Satellite C855D, 64-bit), but my magix music maker will only record from the laptop mic, not my Samson mic. I have already gone to the audio settings on my computer and set up the Samson mic to be recognized by my computer and that all looks fine. However, when I try to go into music maker I can only hear what was recorded into the laptop mic versus when I have tried recording into the Samson mic. Please help!! Thanks!

Hi

Did you select the USB mic as the recording source in Music Maker?

If you did and it still recorded from the laptop mic then you will need to disable the laptop mic - you will need to look into the Toshibas settings to find the option where to do this.
