Blue Yeti Microphone Not Showing Up as an Option in Sound

I have a Blue Yeti microphone that I used back in 2016 with my old Macbook. I now have a different MacBook Pro that is a few years old and it's not showing up. I bought a new cable and have adapters that work well to connect to other devices. Is there a permission block? The yeti is lighting up when I connect it to the Macbook so I know it's on.

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.

Can't get any audio input - and no, it's not microphone permission! I had to switch to a Dante network instead of USB to connect to my audio interface (a Behringer WING) and I can't get Logic to receive any audio input. Output works fine. The first thing I checked was Microphone in Privacy and Security and it's turned on for Logic Pro. I even tried turning it off and then Logic complained that it needed to be on - so the problem would not seem to be due to that security issue. I know for certain that Dante is not the issue because I was able to run Digital Performer, Audacity, Ableton Live and Gig Performer with no problems - flawless. I'm running the latest version of Logic Pro on a MacMini (Apple Silicon) running the latest version of Sonoma. Any insights would be appreciated....it's extremely frustrating. Thanks in advance

Is there a permission block?

Did you add it to Full Disk Access first...

Controlling app access to files in macOS

then check your Microphone setting...
