Garage Band Not allowing input from Airpods

I connected my airpods to my Mac and tried to record a track on garageband using my airpod mic as the input. Usually I do not have any problems with this, however, today when I tried to record, it kept saying "no input selected".

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.7

Hello heavenlychild, 

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. 


First check to confirm that GarageBand still has access to your Mac microphone input. You can view these settings by opening the Apple menu > System Settings, then Privacy & Security.

If you’re still noticing an issue, here are general troubleshooting steps that you can try: If GarageBand isn't working on your Mac


All the best!
