"MME device internal error"

What worked for me was going into sound settings then click troubleshoot underneath the input. Something was not set to default somewhere and the troubleshooter fixed it.

Setting input to none is not an acceptable answer. This is a professional editing suite, turning a feature off should never be an acceptable answer.

I am getting the same MME error after updates on 1/17/20 and now none of my Adobe Programs are able to record or play back through my MIDI or MIC (internal MIDI). I don't know where this error is sneaking in as the logs are errily devoid of anything useful. In case someone from Adobe actually checks this my configuration is below. Everything was workng as normal one moment then restarting the machine a few hours later none of the USB or MIDI input mics are able to be recognized as working. They work in other non-Adobe programs and the updated drivers are installed. I have been using this particular setup for at least 6 months and it happened all of a sudden across all adobe apps.Windows security cauises an iisue with my Photoshop so Threat detection is off and the apps are allowed through our firewalls as well as allowed access to the microphone. I tested with a USB mic, a MIDI to USB input controller with mic, and the machine internal mic. None of them work now. The MME error displays after switching to the device. NOW Here is a note, I reinstalled the MIDI drivers and the mic worked in Premeire and AE but then 5 mins later just stopped working again and showed the MME error

Switching from MME to ASIO for the MIDI controller allowed me to record again however it is less than ideal for our use case since the MME drivers allow us more input flexibility. The first time i switched to the ASIO drivers they worked for about 5 mins then threw an error. Now i have reinstalled and will see if it happens again

HP Spectre 360 Laptop

Microphones: USB Samson GTrack and US-122L MIDI with Tascam Tm-78 

All apps at latest versions as of 1/18/20

Adobe CC (Premeire, Audition, Rush, After Effects is my everyday stack)

I had the same problem - not being able to actually input audio to Premiere. I solved it by allowing access to microphone in Windows 10 settings. Search for "windows 10 allow microphone privacy".

Worked for me. Many thanks !

None of this have helped me. I have tried everything resetting my Audio setting. But still, this keeps on happening.

I found a very simple solution which works for me. I had exactly the same problem.

My config: Windows10, AMD Ryzen 2700, EVGA GPU Gtx1060, and Adobe Audition CS6.

Go to Windows settings...Privacy...Microphone...and click on "Allow Apps to access your microphone".

That's all
