Hi I’m brand new to audacity. I have a bluetooth mic an sbs wireless mic. It is pared to my win 10 laptop. It dosn’t seem to show up as a mic in audacity. How do I find it?
2nd question is that I want to record a presentation that I’m doing using the mic however I’m simultaneously using the mic on the microsoft translator website to translate the presentation into another language. How can I do both at the same time.
And as a bonus question can speakers be plugged into the laptop too so that the sound is amplified for the room?

Right-click on the Windows speaker/volume icon and select Recording Devices. If Windows sees it, Audacity should see it. If Windows can’t see it you’ll need to check the user manual for the mic to install/configure it.

Probably not. It can “work” but there is latency (delay) through the computer. Sometimes you can manage/minimize the delay, but I assume it’s worse with Bluetooth.
I’m also assuming that there is no Bluetooth receiver… The only receiver is the computer, right? (A “normal” wireless mic uses a receiver with an analog line-output to the mixer/PA system.)
