How can I use my studio microphone on the laptop?

I bought a studio microphone to make high quality recordings. I can't get the Microphone up and running.

advance
I have 2 laptops. One with operating system MS-Windows 10, one with 2 Linux systems (Mint and Ubuntu). If I insert the Microphone into the laptop, no matter which system, the Microphone is recognized. Unfortunately, when I try to start recording with AudoaCity, no sound comes to the program.

Note
The recording works via the integrated microphone in the laptop. Only not in the desired quality!

Hiring notes that I found on YouTube and Google have unfortunately not been successful.

I hope to find a solution here

I would say you did not set the Microphone as an input on Audacity, or your Microphone is scrap or it can't draw enough power.

Please do not use Audacity for music productions. Only for sound recordings, it is limited suitable.

Me

First, please replace this abart of kabel with a two-sided xlr cable and get a small audio interface with xlr input (there are quite cheap for about 60 euro from beringer)

Audacity is not that good at times… But I still prefer Ableton Live 10

ky

Do you know the settings at audacity?

ar

Me too;-)

For another connection is no book on the laptop

Me

It's just that with such a wiring, the loss of quality is enormous so you should connect an interface which compensates bass etc so that the audio card in the laptop is not so much strugglen

ky

At the moment, no word comes when I want to record. By the way, only voice recordings should be made, no music, no singing

ky

How can I try to configure the microphone in Audacity?

Me

Look under system control whether the micro is recognized…

ky

The microphone is recognized by the system, but I can't get the recording up and running

Me

Is that the micro hired?

Did you adjust the micro as eigang ij audacity?

Is there probably a driver for the micro?

Maybe your sound card is not enough for the micro and can't handle it

ky

With interface and so I can't do anything

Drivers were not there

The Microphone has no on-off switch

Audiacity works perfectly with the internal microphone of the laptop. No idea how to change something in the program
