Manufacturer-documented Reviewed 2026-11-09 · Revision 1
Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
One numbered input flashes; microphone compatibility/power already confirmed.
Connection scope: Analog line / headphone audio. Symptom: My microphone isn’t working.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Is the intended numbered input button flashing?
Only that confirmed mute state justifies an unmute operation.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Is its microphone/source already connected with correct documented power?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-1
Is its microphone/source already connected with correct documented power?
Do not change48V or hot-plug a microphone as part of this mute check.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → May this input become audible at reduced monitoring level?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-2
May this input become audible at reduced monitoring level?
Unmuting can immediately restore its signal.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / check completed → Hold that same flashing numbered input button to unmute
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-3
Hold that same flashing numbered input button to unmute
Do not hold the other channel or press48V.
Look for: Perform only the stated operation, then confirm whether it could be completed.
- If Yes / check completed → Does flashing stop with the intended input signal present?
- If No / cannot confirm → Keep these observations for official support
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

step-4
Does flashing stop with the intended input signal present?
Do not repeatedly toggle if the observation is unknown.
Look for: Confirm the actual prerequisite or observation. Unknown stops safely.
