using the yeti mic with audacity

Post by tmzawtun » Sat Feb 11, 2012 10:20 pm

I am using audacity to record simple podcasts and I am also using a yeti microphone. The microphone shows up in system preferences and I have selected it as the input device; however, it does not show up in audacity - not in the drop down selection nor in the preferences. This microphone works on a friend's mac book - they have an older version of audacity and it shows up in audacity. It shows up in my garage band just not audacity. What could be the problem?

Restart Audacity if you connected the Yeti after launching Audacity.

Otherwise, try setting the mic up in Apple Audio MIDI Setup:
