Has anyone ever managed to get the combined in/out (headphone port) to work with an external Mic. NONE of my mics (powered/non, mono, stereo or TRS) get detected in AUDIO, Garageband or QuickTime.
Any suggestions on how to get the port to work (NOT USB/iRig)
Cheers
Hi there, flashviatxt!
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you are having anise connecting your external mic to your Mac. I suggest checking out this article to Set up audio devices in Audio MIDI Setup on Mac. This article will give you the steps you can take to set up your external microphone with the Mac.
You'll also find information in this section if you continue to have issues:
