I just bought a PowerMac 7200 and discovered that the usual microphone was
not supplied.
Then I borrowed one from a friend, but still I could not record (I tried
Simpletext and Audioshop).
Does anyone know if there is a built-in microphone in my PowerMac? If yes,
where is it?
Here is the sound hardware info about my mac (from Techtool):
Sound:
Hardware has Stereo Capability
Stereo Mixing on External Speaker
Sound I/O Manager Present
Built-in Input Hardware Present
Input Device Available
Built-in Simultaneous Play & Record
Can Play and Record 16-bit Samples
Can Record Stereo
Input Port Requires Line Level
Play Double Buffer
Multiple Channel Support
16-bit Audio Data Supported
I tried to use CoolTalk (with no success), but the readme file says that I
should have a PlainTalk microphone. My microphone is just a simple plastic
round-shaped thing that was supplied with another PowerMac. I think it is
stereo.
Is that a PlainTalk microphone?
I also tried to record from SimpleText with no success.
If I go in the Control Panel, Sound, I can set the input source as either
External Microphone or Internal CD.
I am sure that the microphone is plugged in the right port.
Can anybody email me some hint? Do I need a new microphone or some setting
is wrong?
Thanks,
Max
