    My computer keeps recording desktop sounds and taking them as microphone input.


    Like the subject says, whenever I go on Discord calls, my computer takes the sound straight from my computer and takes it as sounds from my microphone and sends it to the call. I need help turning it off.

    :)

    Microphone records input and output

    I am using a DAW to record microphone inputs on various tracks.

    When I hit record, the microphone picks up the DAW's metronome (output) as well as the sound I intended to record. When I play back the track, the metronome has indeed been recorded, along with all the other sounds picked up by the microphone.

    When I start another track the input records both the microphone and the playback audio, including all previously recorded tracks and the metronome.

    Listen to device has been deselected. There is no environmental effects tab for the microphone. All other inputs and outputs have been disabled. I have customized and reset to defaults from both the Windows settings/sounds panels and the DAW. The inputs
    work, and the outputs work, I just want the input to ONLY record the microphone, not all other playback/output signals.

    External microphone not showing in the Recording tab

    My Windows 10 laptop is not recognizing any external microphones. I have two headsets: a Bluetooth one and one for an audio jack. Both headsets work correctly on other devices. When I connect the headsets to my computer, I can hear audio, but the microphones
    do not work.

    Here are the steps I've taken so far:

    • Updated drivers (they were already up to date)
    • From Sound Settings, headsets do not appear as options for the input device
    • Ran the microphone troubleshooter - headsets do not appear as options
    • From Control Panel > Sound > Recording, headsets do not appear as options. I have selected the disabled and disconnected devices options.
    • From Microphone Privacy, all apps have access to the microphone.
    That's everything I found online to fix this problem. Any suggestions?

    Sound is not being recorded when taking a video

    Sound is not being recorded when taking a video. I know the microphone is working since I can ask a question verbally and the computer responds. However, no sound appears to be recorded when taking the video. There does not seem to be any controls to adjust
    the sound input which also seems strange.
