Let me start by getting the basic info out of the way using bullet points:
*I am running the latest version of OS 10X Lion on a 27" 4 core iMac
*I am using Pro Tools 8 LE with an Mbox Mini.
*I am recording with a condenser mic and a standard vocal mic, I have the phantom power on when I use the condenser mic.
*The Guitar 1 interface in the concentric connector is still able to pick up sound and record from the condenser mic or standard mic, but Mic 1 interface will not become highlighted(yellow) or pick up any sound.
*I have been able to record using the Mic 1 interface in the past.
*The Mbox LED indicator shows that the hardware is receiving sound when the mic 1 interface is selected, but it will not pick up any sound through the interface.
I thought I damaged my Mbox and returned it under warranty. I am using a brand new Mbox Mini and USB cable.
Here is a list of things I have tried:
*Uninstalling and reinstalling Pro Tools 8 LE
*Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers for the Mbox Mini
*disc utility
*I read through all the FAQ's and tried this (

*I checked the I/O settings in pro tools and restored them all to default
I am truly at a loss. I can not figure out what the [bleep][bleep][bleep][bleep] I did. Someone, dear god, help my sorry ass.
Cheers
