Hi, I've just bought a Behringer UMC202HD Audio Interface for use with music DAWs. The direct monitor is working but I'm getting nothing from my PC.
I have checked that the devices are selected on the relevant programs (Cakewalk, Discord, Audacity) and on Sound. When attempting to record, I just get an error message along the lines of "error opening recording device." In Discord, I select the UMC202HD Microphone but no sound is detected.
The microphone (SM58) is detected by my Audio Interface, since I can hear it in Direct Monitor and a light illuminates when sound is detected.
The programs do detect audio from my Blue Snowball microphone
In the AI I have a guitar plugged into INPUT 1 and the microphone in INPUT 2
I have my AKG headphones plugged into the AI's headphone socket
What could be the problem is that I'm currently using a USB A to USB B cable scavenged from my printer as a temporary measure (the AI didn't come with a cable so that's what I'm using until I can get a cable). However, I'm not sure this is a problem because the printer includes a scanner so should (?) therefore be a 2-way cable.
