Hi Alex,
I have Flashed Audiomoth to perform as an USB mic. The app recognized the laptop internal mic as default and when I denied permission for being default input device in hope the app to recognize the Audiomoth as default input device it says "could not initialise input device". I've tried with the three settings (Custom, USB, Default), and nothing happens. Also tried with and without micro SD card and batteries. Am I doing something wrong? I suppossed that if using it as USB mic the micro SD and the batteries would not be necessary. Thank you.
Hi Carlos,
Did you manage to resolve this? You should just be able to flash the AudioMoth USB Microphone firmware, switch to CUSTOM (the red LED will flash rapidly) and then the microphone will appear as a regular USB microphone on your computer. It will appear in the standard audio settings (depending on your operating system). The AudioMoth Live App will find and connect to the microphone automatically if it is present, and use the default audio device if it isn't. It sounds like your computer can't see the AudioMoth USB Microphone as a regular USB device for some reason. Alex
Hi Carlos,
A couple of questions so we can help diagnose the problem. First, which operating system are you using?
If it's Windows, plug in the AudioMoth and set it to CUSTOM. Once that's done, open Device Manager and let me know if any AudioMoth USB Microphone devices are listed under "Sound, video and game controllers"?
Thanks,
Peter
