Asked by ChillPanda42
Hey everyone, I'm Olivier. I was recording a video when my screen froze, which happens sometimes, but now my Tonor microphone with an arm isn't being detected by any games or platforms. The blue light on the mic is on, so it seems to be recognized by the PC, but I can't get any sound. I really need to fix this issue quickly. Any advice?

You might want to do this: Right-click the Sound icon (the speaker) at the bottom-left of your screen and select Sound. Head over to the Recording tabโ€”your microphone should be listed there. Select it, click on Properties, and under Levels, check if thereโ€™s a muted icon. It can be muted even if the volume isnโ€™t at zero!

Have you tried the classic unplug and replug? It often works wonders! Also, check if your micโ€™s manufacturer has any drivers you need to install.

CalmCat23: I get that urgency can be frustrating, but remember, people here are helping on their own time. Just asking for help nicely can go a long way!
