Any time you want to record sound using an external microphone, you
need to make sure your sound input source is set to “External
Microphone.” Open the Monitors & Sound control panel in the Control
Panels folder, available in the Apple (K) menu, click the Sound icon, and
choose “External Microphone” from the Sound Input pop-up menu.

If you’re using your monitor’s built-in microphone to record, use the
Monitors & Sound control panel to make the monitor’s speakers mute. In
the same control panel, make sure that the sound input is set to the
monitor’s built-in microphone.

For additional help, see the “Sound” topic area of Macintosh Guide (or
Mac OS Guide), available in the Guide (h) menu in the upper-right corner of
your screen.
