Hello. After some research, I ended up buying AKG's microphone P120. However, I needed a soundcard and a XLS cable, apart from the headset I already own (Audio-Technica ATH-M40X). I bought a simple, economic soundcard, with one input and output (Alesis Core 1) and the XLS cable.
A few hours ago, I got home, and built the set. I got my headphones plugged into the Alesis Core 1, as well as the AKG P120 with the XLS cable. Then, an USB comes out from the soundcard and goes to the computer. I've made sure I got the right sound configuration (Alesis Core 1 selected as input and output), and the output works just nice (I can hear sound from the computer into my headphones, so I'm wondering if it isn't a problem of whether the soundcard, but of either the microphone itself or even the cable.
Anyone who can show me what I should do in order to get sound from the microphone. I've already tried Audacity, FL Studio and the default Windows audio interface to prove everything should be correct.
I'd be glad to get a response of anyone who thinks can solve my problem.
Thank you in advance.
