Recently setup new laptop with windows 11. Installed Audacity but the
Behringer U-Phoria UM-2 and the Neewer NW-700 mic is not recognized
by Audacity or the laptop . Perhaps you can advise me on what I’m missing .
If Windows doesn’t see it first, Audacity won’t see it.
Maybe you have a bad USB cable or maybe the interface is bad.
I’m pretty sure you don’t need to install any drivers for the Behringer. It should work with the drivers supplied by Microsoft. (You don’t need the ASIO driver. Audacity isn’t an ASIO application.)
Even with the drivers installed by plug-and-play, Audacity probably won’t be able to use them without permission.
