Blue Snowball Microphone

[Jason Liu]

I have a slight issue with my microphone, when I get too loud, the microphone automatically reduces the volume it picks up. I thought that it was just my computer, but it's the mic, If anyone knows how to make it so it's locked at 100% and doesn't fluctuate, that would be amazing!

I think it depends on the program you are using. For example, I know in Garageband, under the microphone settings, there's an option to turn off Automatic Level Control. Though, it's typically not the best idea to record audio that loud. It's annoying to listen to because it typically "cracks" really loudly and hurts the listeners ears. Also, it can actually damage your (or the person listening's) speakers. But I hope this helps!
