I am using the most updated version of GB and it wont record my audio. I have a headset that has a built in mic. I have tried going to GB preferences, and changing it to built in, but that did not work. when I check the input audio levels coming from my mic for my computer it registers and shows up. Ive played around a lot with the setting and that has got me nowhere. Please help!

if you've upgraded your OS, 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:
