Blue snowball driver(?) issue?

[DylanM]

So I was using my blue snowball recently brought (on Friday and it was working completely fine until today, it decided it was going to be recognized as Advanced audio device instead of previous Blue snowball USB microphone.

If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated and thanks in advance

Sorry, should have clarified that, it's working but not as intended, the lowest (cardioid -10db) setting is picking up noises that it didn't before hand.

Well I don't think it's a driver issue, since the mic uses plug-n-play drivers in the OS (Windows). You could try doing a Windows update and then reboot and see what happens. Other than that, I don't think there's anything actually wrong, there's just a setting somewhere via software that's causing the issue.

Also forgot to mention that my pc is picking it up as a "speaker"

Something vital you forgot to mention.

 

What version of Windows are you using? Have you tried to reinstall your drivers from snowballs website yet?
