<title>Use a different microphone</title>
- <comment>
- <p>Just Works when plugging into mic jack, might have to select
- device for e.g. usb mic</p>
- </comment>
+ <p>You can use an external microphone for audio conferencing, making
+ voice recordings, or using other multimedia applications. Even if your
+ computer has a built-in microphone or a webcam with a microphone, a
+ separate microphone could provide better audio quality.</p>
+
+ <p>If your microphone has a circular TS (<em>tip, sleeve</em>) plug, plug
+ it into the appropriate socket on your computer. Most computers have two
+ sockets: one for microphones and one for speakers. Look for a picture of
+ a microphone next to the socket. When connected through a TS socket.
+ Microphones plugged into a TS socket will usually be used by default.
+ If not, see the instructions below for selecting a default input device.</p>
+
+ <p>If you have a USB microphone, plug it into any USB port on your
+ computer. USB microphones act as separate audio devices, and you may
+ have to specify which microphone to use by default.</p>
+
+ <steps>
+ <title>Select a default audio input device</title>
+ <item><p>Click your name in the top bar and select <gui>System Settings</gui>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Click <gui>Sound</gui>.</p></item>
+ <item><p>On the <gui>Input</gui> tab, select the device in the list of devices.
+ The input level indicator should respond when you speak.</p></item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>If you don't see your device on the <gui>Input</gui> tab, check the
+ <gui>Hardware</gui> tab. Make sure the profile for the device includes
+ "input".</p>
