Hello markcnc1.


Welcome to Apple Support Communities.


If I'm understanding correctly, you need some help locating the setting in QuickTime to allow access to the microphone. I will be glad to assist.


Please see the steps below from our article: How to use QuickTime Player


Record audio only

Audio recording works with your built-in microphone, external microphone, or other Core Audio-compliant audio device.

  1. Choose File > New Audio Recording.
  2. To change the recording settings, click the arrow next to the Record button. Then choose your microphone and recording quality.
  3. To monitor audio while it's being recorded, use the volume slider.
  4. Click the Record button  to start recording. Click it again to stop recording. 

  5. Cheers.
