Hello i am totally new to this so i have so far done guess work

basically my dilemma is i have bought a Behringer C-1U usb mic and i am trying to record in cubase..
when adding this mic i went to vst drivers changed from built in audio to C-1U
when doing this i have lost my output so can no longer hear the audio through headphones...

i added a sample in as a track and a separate one to record vocal onto.. i cannot hear the track now i have added this mic

please help
 
Never used a USB mic, but I think you can do it by using ASIO4All as your ASIO driver in Cubase. But not sure.
 
Read the documentation for the mic. Unfortunately, you can only use one audio device at a time. If you choose the mic and the mic doesn't have any playback capability, you are pretty well screwed.

Most USB mics are meant to be used for podcasting and things like that, where you don't need to monitor anything.
 
I was afraid that was the case.

The asio driver seems to work and it looks like the mic is picking up sound but as I cannot monitor it I don't know.

Surely there is a way around this
 
No, there isn't. That isn't the right mic for what you are trying to do.
 
Nope. All the programs will only allow you to use one ASIO driver at a time.

Your choice of mic is the problem, not the software.
 
Cheers but your wrong it can be done in GarageBand and possibly logic I haven't tried logic yet
 
Nope. All the programs will only allow you to use one ASIO driver at a time.

Even if a particular driver, or software will allow a USB mic, the choice of a USB mic is still the problem. 'Limited' is only the start. Quality of the mic is limited with these types as well.
 
The quality is sufficient for what I am doing right now I'm not worried about that it was just getting it working. I would still like to use cubase but it works fine with what I'm using
