How come my condensor microphone is not functioning?
My mixer is a "Behringer Xenyx 1204" and my microphone is a "Audio Technica AT4040." Can somebody explain what to do on the mixer itself so that the microphone can be ready to be used? Also, programs available for me to record on is "audacity, sonar, cubase, and fruity loops." im used to audacity but if you can explain how to change the preferences to these programs so that i can be able to record please let me know.
You need phantom power for a condenser mic, and I don't think the Xenyx 1204 has phantom power. This isn't the end of the world though you will need to get a phantom power adapter that basically sends 48V down the XLR cable.

The mixer does have a USB connection though which means you can use it as an external soundcard. Once connected you should be able to select the mixer from your dropdown menu within Windows Volume Control a little like you would select the USB device in the following article:

(look at the screen-shot at the bottom of the page)
This page illustrates some of the adjustments you might make within Audacity and in Volume Control to get the system working:

taken from an article that explains how you can connect a different Audio Technica mic directly to a PC... (the one I used can run from a 1,5v battery...).
Hope this helps
