Webcam makers do not often include microphones this good any more (the Webcam 9000 was pretty expensive in its day).
If I decide to host, I'll have to make one of my fancier mikes work with OS X but this mic is a great start. Since the camera part no longer works, I've mounted my Logitech Webcam 9000 on a mic stand to use for podcasts as a guest. Untreated sample recording attached from SoundStudio as quality demo (fragment from Loving and Beloved, Sir John Suckling).
Now in the Volume Tab right under the format dropdown, fiddle with the volume bar, decreasing it all the way and then increasing it to the max.Īnd now your microphone should work again. In the format dropdown, select a different Hz from what is already selected. Double-click the installation files for the software and drivers and follow the prompts on screen to complete the installation. This is the Logitech Webcam 9000, as recognized by OSX. Go to the Logitech Webcam Support page (link in Resources) and click your webcam. Select the Unknown USB Audio Device by clicking on it in the left pane. Open Audio Midi Setup from /Applications/Utilities/. It's possible to get the microphone working under 10.11.5 by following these steps: The video instructions above don't work for current Skype 7.44 or for Photo Booth 8.0. Unfortunately, this camera is no longer working out of the box under El Capitan 10.11.5. It's a very good 720p camera with an excellent microphone.
