I think I've finally pinned down what my problem is - my internal laptop microphone has been activated after being dormant for years. I didn't even realize my computer had an internal mic!
When I try to record sound without an external mic, the internal mic successfully records sound.... the problem is that if I turn the audio output up to a significant level, it produces deafening feedback.
When I plug in an external mic, it toggles the internal mic. However, the external mic does not pick up any sound, so that no sound is recorded at all.
I guess somehow my crazy computer re-activated the internal microphone after all these years, and it is causing a conflict with my external mic.
Any tips on how to de-activate my internal mic so that I can use an external one?
Cheers.
