How can I use my microphone

[meaflnek]

I can't find a way to use the microphone on my mac. I want tobe able to use it like Garage Band, since that app is taking forever to load each time I record, so if anyone knows where to find the microphone/recording on a macbook, any advice is greatly appreciated 🙂
