    USB Mic Not An Input Device?


    I got a new USB mic however it only shows up as a sound device, not an input device. I have tried updating the driver however that didn't change anything. I have tried the mic on another device and it does work there, so unsure why it wont work on my laptop.

    :)

    USB Mic Problems.

    The next step is what I suggested originally. Try it in a friend's PC or take it to Best Buy and ask them to try it one of their PC's. Have to confirm the mic is working OK.

    WASAPI can't see audio input of generic USB audio device


    I have a very old Roland audio interface (UA1-EX) which I have to use in its generic USB audio mode because it is no longer supported by Roland. I have been able to get it working using ASIO4ALL and record from its audio input, albeit very poorly. So I decided to try using it with WASAPI. However in my DAW's audio device controls, the mic input of the interface is not listed, even though its ouput is. Why would the input of a generic USB audio device not be available in WASAPI?
