Each time I record I need to go to preferences and set for microphone. Then each time I reuse Captivate I have to set it again. Is there any way to set microphone as a default setting?

Thanks for your help.

    What version of Captivate are you using?  Also, do you have more than one input device or two soundcards? 

    What is your path for the preference selection? 

    Captivate 4:  Preferences>Recording>Audio Settings>Audio Devices (select from the dropdown).

    Captivate 4. One input device and one soundcard.

    Audio\Settings\Input Devices

    Thank you!

    I think the Captivate preference is pulling from your default sound device set up on your computer.  I am assuming you are using a pc.

    Go to your Control Panel > Sounds & Audio Devices.  Select the Audio tab and check your default settings for your recording device.  If necessary, change your default.

    Open a new project up in Captivate and see if the default changes.  Not sure if this will work for sure, but my default in Captivate matches my Windows default device.
