Troubleshooting

No audio input detected

Ensure the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the microphone and the host device. Verify that the MiCreator System is selected as the audio input device in your computer's or phone's sound settings and in your recording software.

Low audio levels

Check the input gain settings in your recording software. Ensure the microphone is positioned at an appropriate distance from the sound source. Test with different USB ports or cables.

No sound from headphones

Confirm headphones are plugged into the MiCreator Studio's headphone jacks. Check the headphone volume level in your recording software or system audio settings. Ensure the recording source is active.

Satellite microphone not working

Verify the connection between the Satellite and the Studio microphone. Ensure the Studio microphone is powered via USB-C. Test the Studio microphone independently to confirm it is functioning.
