I updated cakewalk recently and since then im not able to record any songs, i sing and i got an audio technica AT2020 and an M-audio duo as the interface. As the title suggests im not able to record anything as the mic isnt picking up any sound i have gone through all the driver settings and other stuff and still to no avail i even re-installed cakewalk again but its still the same. usually i see the decibles but its not even showing that over there. i have the correct things selected in the drivers as well but its not showing me anything I tried recording on audacity it did worked out but its only working in the left. Its really weird whats happening with me cause im not able to work

I know man but I cant afford such an expensive mic at my current stage and I am a broke college student

I am using a cheap mic which I bought from amazon for recording my songs but it sounds really bad and distorted I tried using the mic on like an online mic testing website and it sounded fine over there but whenever i tried recording by it sounds really bad. I dont think theres a problem with the mic but I dont know why it sounds on cakewalk so weird but it sounds alright on other places. Any help on how should i get over this would be appreciated edit: I just tried it again on audacity and I sound alright on there. The playback which I am getting on cakewalk is like a bad distorted robotic child voice if you're getting what I am trying to say

So I have bought this cheap USB mic from amazon for recording my songs. The issue is that I am not able to select the mic in the cakewalk preferences I am trying to get a solution since yesterday. Please help would be appreciated I am not able to sing and record. Thanks a lot.

I just installed cakewalk and I was getting this error message so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it again but this issue is still persisting. I am not able to fix this problem. I tried to search it on YT as well but I didnt get any result. While the install wizard I selected the basic option as well to get it downloaded and my VST plugin folder is in the C drive as well. I am totally lost on whats happening. Any help on how I should get rid of this issue and how should I configure my OS to run it will be appreciated. Also I am running a windows 11 Home version
