Setting up Pyle mixer with 3 mics

Hello. I am new to podcasting and am trying to get audacity to record on 3 mics. I bought a Pyle mixer and have all three mics connected via XLR. Audacity recognizes the mixer which is connected to my computer via USB, but for some reason I can only record from one microphone no matter what settings I choose. Any assistance on how to set this up properly is very much appreciated! Thank you.

Exactly what mixer? Link?

Do you get all 3 mics from the analog (or headphone) output?

What he said. This is assuming you have wired headphones. Also, do all three microphones appear on the mixer's bouncing sound meter?

We can get a lot more specific once we know which mixer. Also which microphones?
