Hi,
Yesterday (and many, many times before), I was using my line-in to do a recording using my condenser microphone. Today, when I plugged my cable into the line-in input, my music program showed that the input volume was maxed, despite me not having made any sounds. I double checked in the system preferences, and it was showing a maxed out signal as well.
I then opened garageband, and with the mic plugged in (or any 3.5 mm plug), the computer made an awful repeated clipping noise.
What exactly could be going on? Is there a fix for this?
