Re: Won't record - red triangle ??
I had this problem with Windows 10. I am using a PreSonus AudioBox USB 96 Audio Interface (which is excellent BTW). I needed to update the PreSonus interface driver in Windows. That cleared the red triangle problem for me. Hope this helps.

Re: Won't record - red triangle ??
Thank you for taht information. I will definit ely give it a try. As a note, my old Yeti microphone does not have this problem, it is always available and never gets 'forgotten'. But thanks again for taking the time. I will reinstall my Rode mic and give it a shot!

Hi, Did you manage to sort this as I am having the same problem and I feel your frustration.I will reinstall my Rode mic and give it a shot!
Am using Windows 10 and Audacity 2.3.2 and tried all the options as you have, reebooting, re-installing audacity and Rode NT1 mic, it recognises its there when I rescan for devices but when I press record, all I get is the red arrow which kind of flickers and is stuck and doesn't move as it should when you record. I too have been using Audacity with no problems before.
I thought maybe it could be a driver? - it happened with my Yamaha keyboard too and I re-installed the driver for that, then it worked but the next time I launched the program, it refused to record as above again.
