Hiccup: iMac will not detect sound input from a microphone unless the mic is connected via USB. We tried using a Sennheiser mic, with a ¼" to 3.5mm jack converter, connected to the iMac's audio-out port.
The solution offered in relevant online forums is the iMic. In the meantime, for test purposes, we will use my Wii Band Hero microphone.
For this project we are using ActionScript 3.0 in Flash CS4. As a programming foundation to detect microphone activity, we will use source code from Adobe ActionScript 3.0 help files.
