    Hello,
    My Cubase doesn't seem to be detecting my USB microphone.
    It doesn't show up in the audio connections tab. The ASIO4all control panel doesn't show any useful options either.
    Googling this shows threads from years and years ago and their solutions are no longer helpful (their Cubase is so outdated its totally different).

    Any suggestions? Using Cubase 10.5 pro (not legit)

    In Cubase go to "Devices--> VST Connections" and go to the Input tab. Create a new mono bus. Now select the USB Mic input as Device Port for that bus. If you want to you can also rename the bus to for example to "USB Mic Bus"

    Nothing new shows up after creating a new mono bus. Only my 2 default audio inputs.
