My microphone has never been picked up by apex. It always works and I never have any issues. A professional condenser microphone using a focusrite audio interface. But when it comes to apex it never seems to pick the mic up. I’ve used YouTube a google found fixes setting my default communication devices which apparently worked for a lot of people but still has not helped me!
