Dual Input Microphone into Mac
Hi,
I am sure I am asking a very basic and easy question and so can only apoligise for that but I have a microphone which has dual left/right input connections however the socket of my iMac (12mths old) only allows for one which makes the sound recorded barely audible.
Is any aware of an adapter I could use to combine the left/right inputs, either via usb or the 3.5mm connection input.
I hope I have explained this sufficiently as I’m not great with technical jargon.
Thanks
Daniel

Hi,
Sorry the microphone is an audio-technica stereo condenser microphone and my system is an iMac (model identifier: iMac11,2) running OSX with a 3.06 GHz Intel Core i3 processor.
I hope that helps

Hello Daniel and welcome to the Cow Audio Forum.
I think all Mac have stereo analog inputs. Gain may be a factor, but you do have to visit the Mac Audio/MIDI control panel the volume.
To input correctly to the Mac, you’d need a male 1/8″ TRS to male 1/8″ TRS cable.
