Post split to new topic. Similar symptoms are frequently not the same problem, so better to start a new topic.
What USB mic are you using?
Does Audacity actually “crash” (shut down unexpectedly), or freeze, or something else?
Also if Audacity does quit (the Audacity window disappears) please have a look at /Applications/Utilities/Console.app and attach the latest Audacity Crash Report. Please see here for how to attach files: https://forum.audacityteam.org/t/how-to-attach-files-to-forum-posts/24026/1
If it’s a quit, it may help to record with only one track in only one project window. Quit and restart Audacity before making a new recording.
