Sudden Internal Microphone Distortion for Adobe Spark

I recorded countless videos last year with perfect output and suddenly when I went back to update the recordings, it's coming out distorted. I've played with sound and I've given Adobe Spark permission to use my internal microphone. This is a two year old iMac. I really need to get this taken care of for a class I teach. HELP!

iMac, OS X 10.10

Why is my Snowball Mic not being detected in sound system preferences on my Mac? I have used this mic before on my mac to do voiceovers on imovie, last time I used it was probably a month ago, and now that I want to record again it won't detect it on imovie, I checked all of my preferences and everything is as it should be to allow mic usage but the mic does not appear on output sound preferences. Any idea why? please help!

Same Microphone showing up twice in Apple Preference Sound I uninstalled logitech ghub (removing the application and some files in Library), and now when I plug in my blue yeti x microphone it is showing twice in input and twice in output. And when I use an application like obs the yeti is also showing up twice. If I go to applications, audio midi setup, it has Yeti x1 yeti x2 yeti x3 and yeti x4. What can I do so it only shows up once. I tried rebooting the computer, plugging and unplugging the USB and that did not help. I have a mid 2015 macbook pro with monterey OS.

Input microphone not working My iMac's internal input microphone doesn't work. This mostly happens when I use Zoom, my current workaround it using my Bluetooth headphones. But when the battery on those die, so does my voice on that call... All my settings are as per Zoom's setup which makes me think this might be an iMac issue. Is there something I can look at or check for to make sure my iMac is working correctly from an audio point of view? I got a new hard drive installed in April (1TB Solid State Drive). Not sure if that's worth mentioning. Thanks in advance. :)

I don't know why it's showing OS X 10.10. This iMac is Big Sur 11.6.
