Built in Mic location

I have a Tecra S3510 that I need to remove the built in camera and microphone from in order to use for work in a secured facility. The camera was no problem, but I'm having a hard time locating the built in microphone. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Please try the following steps first:
Right click the speaker icon (bottom right),
Select Recording devices
Right click "Internal Microphone Array"
Enable it,
Click Ok/Apply
Regards.

  • Having a problem with built in mic in iMac

    It seems my built in mic is not working on my iMac 2.7 GHz with Intel Core 15.
    I am running OS X 10.9.3
    The first option under Audio Devices is
    "Built-in Microphone" which is set at 2 in/ 0 out, 44100.0 Hz and 2ch-24 bit Integer
    Master volume is all the way to the right,  Value = 1 and dB = 12.  Mute and Thru are unchecked.
    The second option is
    "Built-in Input" which is set at 2 in/ 0 out, 48000.0Hz and 2ch-32bit Float, Hardware rate Converter is set to Automatic. Master slider is unavailable, sliders 1 & 2 are all the way to the right both with Value = 1 and dB = 12.  Mute and Thru are unchecked.
    The speakers are working fine.  I noticed the microphone issue when trying to use Facetime, iMovie and GarageBand.  During Facetime, I can hear my caller, but they cannot hear me.  In GarageBand, I am unable to record vocals.  In iMovie, I am unable to record any voiceovers.
    I have tried plugging in an iRig mic as well, but it does not work on the iMac, but works fine on my iPad Air.
    Can someone Please help me resolve this issue. I am sort of a newbie to Apple desktops.  I have googled until I am blue in the face, and everything suggested has not worked for me.  Apple support has no answers and I am at a loss.  I am begging! ! !
    Thank you in advance for any help.

    It's worth resetting the PRAM. See if any other posts there help too, there are a few in simlar posts in the 'More like this' sidebar on the right of the page…

  • Satellite L300-2CL - built in mic stopped working

    Hello
    When I bought this computer (sep-09) everything was working fine. Then in march (I hade it idle for awhile), my built in mic stopped working.
    Everything eles is working fina, and I have scanned the web for solutions, and tried to install new drivers, unistall them, boots everything possible, disabel and rebooting, but at most I just get a static sound from my test recordings.
    I am using win 7 home pre, but the issues started when I was using Vista. Now I am out of ideas, and my friends on Skype grows tired of not hearing me.
    Is there anything I can do to get the mic work, or should I just buy a headset?
    Greatful for help

    Hi
    Sounds a little bit like an mic hardware issue but you should also check the internal mic settings in control panel -> sound.
    There you will see the Recording tab.
    Here you should mark the internal mic and should check the properties.
    Set all volume controllers to max.
    Choose internal mic as standard device.
    In Playback tab choose speakers -> properties.
    There you will see the level tab. Here you should set the microphone to 100 and should check if its not disabled too.

  • After using apogee duet, mac's built in mic & logic's track headers for recording are not working properly.  How do I fix it?

    I use logic 9
    After using apogee duet for mac, I was away from my home studio without the duet and wanted to record vocals via the internal microphone on my mac book pro.  (Obviously, I know it wouldn’t be the same quality.  I wanted to do it as a draft, because I had a melody in my head and wanted to record it so I could remember it later.)
    After opening up a project I was unable to record audio.  I noticed the track headers had changed.  Sometimes the “record ready” button was missing.  But whether it was there or wasn’t, the same thing kept happening… After pressing the “record button” or the “record ready” button a window would pop up that said, “No input source selected!”  I tried to trouble shoot by configuring track header and by going to prefereces>audio>devices>core audio, and switched the “input device” to “built in microphone,” and things like that, but I still would get the same pop up window indicating “no input source selected.”   To be thorough, in preferences under “core audio,” I have selected universal track mode, 24 bit recording, and software monitoring.
    Do I need to reset something?
    If your recommendations help fix the immediate issue temporarily, how do I keep it from reverting back to the same problem if I feel like switching between the duet interface and the built in mic in the future?  How do I keep it permanently from this malfunction?  It seems like this is something simple that would be addressed.
    Also, as I was trying to think of anything it could possibly be.  I wonder if it could be the driver I installed for an old m-box2 possibly causing an issue.  After getting my new mac book pro, I downloaded a driver for m-box2 (the second generation that came out in 2005 and used pro tools LE.)  I used the m-box on my previous computer and it worked well.  Since I purchased a new macbook, I tried to use it on my new computer, but since the m-box2 is a 32 bit system, it didn’t work very well, which is why I got the duet.  I don’t know if that could possibly be messing anything up.  If so, should I uninstall it somehow?
    Thanks

    Ok, think this through... you've changed from a stereo source to a mono source.
    The message reads: “No input source selected!”
    On the track you're trying to record there is an Input section directly underneath the  I/O label. Click and hold to select the correct Input for that track.
    Also, the project you opened was saved with the Duet's driver/interface parameters.. if you open the same project without the audio interface Logic will do it's best to pick I/O that's compatible but I've never seen any DAW do this perfectly.. it always takes a small amount of user input. Especially since you've changed from the Apogee to the internal mic.

  • The built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out.

    the built-in mic in g50 122ca laptop model is not working. please help me out. OS: Windows Vista (32-bit)

    here is a sample code .
    so far you procedure looks good but
    i bet you have to specify the name of report , instead of 'filename'.
    see this
    Plist_id := GET_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    IF NOT ID_NULL(Plist_id) THEN
    DESTROY_PARAMETER_LIST(Plist_id);
    END IF;
    Plist_id := CREATE_PARAMETER_LIST('P_name');
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Receive_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Receive_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Hearing_time', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Hearing_time,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Issue_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Issue_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    ADD_PARAMETER( Plist_id, 'P_Workshop_date', TEXT_PARAMETER, TO_CHAR(Workshop_date,'mm/dd/yyyy'));
    -- RUN_PRODCT(REPORTS,'..\Reports\Pro_License',SYNCHRONOUS, RUNTIME, FILESYSTEM, Plist_id, NULL);
    -- here Pro_License is the name of report.
    did you tried to see if the parameter passed using a message ?
    try
    message('parameter name'); pause; write this before "run_report".

  • No Sound from built-in mic recording to a basic track

    I am not a garageband user in the past so please bear with me.
    I want to record from the built-in mic and I did and there was a obvious record patten on the basic track.
    BUT No Sound, I thought maybe the file was wrong I then recorded an itunes and the record patten was visible and I even tried raising the record level and the patten got higher. The recording level bars in the basic track were green and when I raised the volume there were occasions that they went red.
    However both times No Sound when trying to playback.
    I checked the speaker levels and raised them to maximum in both the GB and my computer.
    The track volume constantly shows 0.00 dB-
    Any thoughts as to why I cannot get the sound to playback.
    Greg

    I got it to work in Guitar track Midi.
    I was in real Instrument.
    Any reason why there would be a difference that sound plays in Guitar Track and not in Real Instruments ?

  • Disabled built-in mic

    Hi. I have a mac mini MC815BZ/A which has a built-in mic, but when I enter on garage band the program says that there are none "integrated MIDI in". Also, all the system doesn`t detect the presence of a integrated mic. But it's not all the problem: when I connect an external mic the system doesn't detect it. Is it possible that the hardware related to sound is broken? Or... Is it possible that the driver isn't working?

    BDAqua. Thank you very much for your concern about my problem, but I just solved it! Or better, an Apple technician helped me. It was just a misunderstanding. There is no built-in mic in a mac mini, but an audio-in ("entrada de áudio") and and audio-out ("saída de áudio").
    One cannot insert a simple microphone on the audio-in, but a mic with four stripes, like nokia's cellphones:
    Once you connect such a phone on the audio-out hole, you'll be able to both listen and speak throught the headset.
    After that, my "Applications> Utilities > Audio midi setup" showed a new section called "microfone integrado", i.e. integrated mic:
    Hence, I was able to move "principal" to the right.
    Besides that, I could not tet skype capturing my voice... But I think it's subject for a new topic.
    Thank you very much for your help!

  • Does the iMac have an AUDIO IN besides from the built-in mic?

    Does the iMac have an AUDIO IN aside from the built-in mic? 
    Also, are any special cables needed?
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi
    You should be able to check by going to about this mac from the Apple menu. Then click the more info button and then the system report button. Next, click on audio tab to the left. If you don't have an entry for built in input then you probably don't have line-in in your mac. As already mentioned though you should be able to defiantly find out with the model and year.
    Hope this helps

  • Mac Mini I just bought shows no built-in mic. Is there no mic? How does one do dictation?

    My new Mac Mini shows no built-in mic. Pls help ,explain.
    I'm using a Samsung display, using HDMI connection from Mini to display.

    The Mac Mini never came with a mic. Just like Windows desktop only computer do not come with a mic. Frequently computer that include a screen include a mic as well as a camera. Examples would be PC all in one computers. laptops and iMac desktops.
    You can use the headphone/mic units designed for phones.

  • Built in mic? where?

    I heard the iMacs have a built in mic... where is it?

    The hole on the left side is for the Ambient Light Sensor.
    It automatically turns the brightness up or down, depending on the light level in the room.
    Since you have now "found" the microphone and want to try it out, check out the speech recongnition built into the OS.

    About speech recognition
    Apple's speech recognition software allows you to control your computer and applications using spoken commands. You can use spoken commands to open applications, choose menu items, email friends in your Address Book, and much more. A number of commands, or “speakable items,” are already created for you. You can also create your own commands and add them to the Speakable Items folder.
    Use the Speech Recognition pane of Speech preferences to turn speech recognition on, set up how to signal your computer that you're speaking a command, create commands for applications, and open the Speakable Items folder.
    When you turn on speech recognition, a round speech feedback window appears on your desktop. This window shows which key you need to press or keyword you need to speak to signal that you're about to speak a command. The pop-up menu at the bottom of the speech feedback window provides quick access to Speech preferences and the Speech Commands window.
    If your computer has a built-in microphone, you can speak commands using the built-in microphone. If you have more than one microphone, speech recognition selects the one it uses in this order: external USB microphone, external analog microphone, built-in microphone."

  • E531 - When standard headphones plugged into jack, built-in mic is disabled

    Greetings everyone ! Lemme start by saying I genuinely feel guilty when my first ever forum post is about a problem/issue, but apparently it's my curse, lol. Per standard rules, I did search through the Edge listing for a solution to my issue, but no luck. So:
    The E531 has one headphone jack, however it's apparently intended use is for headSETS ('phones/mic combo). Currently, my only interest for the port is standard headphones. However, there is an issue: when a pair of standard headphones are plugged in, the built-in mic is disabled so the mic on a headset can be used.
    Is there a setting or config change anywhere in the E531 that would allow the built-in mic to be used when standard headphones are plugged in to the headset jack? I've played around with audio settings as far as I dare to. Please, any help would be greatly apreciated.
    edit: I'm not sure how my Subject line got completely reworded, but I've changed it to suit my topic. Sorry for the confusion.

    There is definitely something strange here. I tried to reproduce your issue and if I plug headphones or headset I can still switch the microphone and speakers under Control Panel>Sound.
    Have you got the latest sound card drivers?

  • Lion has killed my built-in mic for Facetime, but not for Quicktime recording or Skype.

    After updating to Lion the built-in mic on my imac doesn't work properly, the person on the other end hears me very faintly. I can't turn it up anywhere. It works fine in Skype, and System Prefs levels are healthy when Facetime isn't running.
    Please help solve this, it's very frustrating.

    So...the Muted-Mic issue continued to happen. I also had a variation of it, where, the person on the other end of the call heard static/crackling noise.
    The static noise issue (just like the muted-mic) went away as son as I plug in the head set on my iPhone 3g...Using the head-set the other end can hear me with out problems.
    The likely culprit is the built-in mic. ( of-course it could be something else, but the mic is the most likely thing...it could be loose or something).
    ....So I take it in to the Apple Store (Genious Bar) Twice.
    On my first visit they did not exchange it...Since the issue did not occur during a 1min test call he did...he asked me to take my phone back and see if it happens again.
    ...of course the issue happened again.
    On my second visit, the Genious suggested that there might be a problem with the SIM.
    ...I was TOTLLY APPALLED by this response.... Read my original post on my problem, and you can probably infer that the SIM is a very unlikely source of the problem (...also, I'm an Cell Phone engineer for a large company for 8.5 years...so I know a thing or two about how cell phones work).
    I did not tell the genious I'm a Engineer ...Maybe I should've.
    After trying to explain to the genious that his suggestion of changing the SIM was not a likely solution he finally agreed to exchange my phone...The phone is under warranty if they want to debug the phone swapping SIMs etc...they should do this on their own time...not mine!!!
    (he changed the phone and the SIM!!).
    So if you see this issue, hope you can get service without having to go back several times, and getting the run around before they exchange a defective unit.

  • PowerBook G4 built-in mic

    Hi, I know that my PowerBook has a built in mic, but I can't get it to work with garageband. Does anyone know how? Or, do I HAVE to plug in a mic? Thanks!

    You're going to have to explain step by step what you've done,in both the system and in GB. Details are important, because by default a PB should just work with the internal mic.
