Hey guys, I'm more of a PC hardware guy but I've gotten into streaming lately and wanted to improve my audio quality. I dropped some cash on an AT2020 and a phantom power supply (before you ask, I've confirmed this power supply works). Am I losing my mind here, because I have Mic > XLR > Power supply > XLR to 3.5 > computer and I am registering nothing. At first I thought my mic port wasn't working, so I did some testing there before realizing every time I plugged the 3.5 mm into any mic port I got a prompt from windows. The only time it registers when I view it in Sound is when I'm either plugging in or unplugging XLR from the mic. I don't know what to do, and I'm completely at my wit's end which is frustrating for somebody accustomed to just "figuring out" hardware issues like me. Can somebody please tell me if I'm doing something obvious wrong and just missing it? I was so excited about this new setup and it's been nothing but a headache thus far
