Jabra Evolve 75 bluetooth microphone not working as input device

I am trying to use a Jabra Evolve 75 bluetooth headset/microphone for recording podcasts. It works with the podcast tool I used, but I cannot connect it with Garageband to record an intro after. It doesn't work with USB connection, via bluetooth or with the Link 370 adapter.


I tried a lot of things but I always get the input field greyed out. See below.

are you using the latest OS, "Mojave"?


there are new security settings in the latest OS to prevent apps from secretly using input devices; open the Security & Privacy settings in System Prefs and make sure that GB has permission to use your device.


here's an example screen shot from another user showing permission being given to use audio input devices:
