AUX to Type C connector not reading microphone. (iPhone 15) Headphones are mic-less. Only speakers.

hello, I just recently bought an iPhone 15 and whenever I use any sort of connector to convert aux to type C, the phone is not able to read the microphone. This only happens in headphones that do not have mic installed in them and they require to use the phone's mic. in headphones with microphone it works fine. For music recording purposes, I need the phone's mic itself and my headphones, but the mic just does not work at all in mic-less speakers. For further information, I have tried the OnePlus connector, the pixel connector, and portronics connector. The Phone just doesn't read one plus and pixel's connectors at all, and the mic is unreadable in portronics. I have also tried the option to switch to "other device" from "headphone" in sound and haptics and vice versa, nothing works. I just need my mic-less headphones to detect the phone's mic so I can record my music.

I’m a music teacher and have been using a condenser microphone to an XLR cable with the irig Pro converting the XLR to USB mini and then a USB mini cord to USB-C cord running to my iPad for the past year and a half to record classroom rehearsals and play it back for the students and myself.


Yesterday for the first time it seemed not to work. I just looked at the list of 48 Mfi certified cables by cablecreations, which is the company that makes the cord that I’ve been using for the past year and a half. It’s hard to tell which one is which, especially since I’m using such an unusual cord being a USB mini to USB-C to connect these two items.


Please help so I can go back to using my iPad in my essential classroom music instruction.
