Can’t aggregate devices.

I have to usb microphones and I can’t get them both to work on my MacBook Pro. I tried creating an aggregate device but it only reads one mic. Any help?

Aggregate devices not working (but individual mics are recording) on Garageband I have followed all the steps to set up an aggregate device, however when I go to garageband no sound is registering on any mic. They do work individually when they are not aggregated however. Any suggestions? Just in case it helps, here are the steps I'm taking Plug all three mics into USB and selecting the versions in Audio MIDI which are 'in' (see below, but as they are not plugged in the one's selected do not currently show in or out FYI). I also selected mabook air speakers as the output. Then on Garageband I made sure on preferences to select the aggregate device as input and macbook air speakers as output. Then when I went to add a new track as a mic, it showed input 1, input 2, input 3, input 1+2, input 3+4. As the mics had only 1 in each I assumed that the input 1, input 2 and input 3 are the 3 microphones, however once they are selected they do not show any sound being registered when I speak into them. Weirdly, when I do not do the aggregate device, these mics show they register sound when used individually. Desperate for some advice haha!

Using Rode Lavalier Go with Macbook (M1) pro Hello All, I just bought Lavalier Go and SC6 adapter to use them with my macbook (M1) pro. However mac doesnt see Lavalier as a microphone. I tried playing with sound settings. But i couldnt make it work. (I tried without the sc6 and mac doesnt see the mic as external mic, only as external headphones in the output sound section.) Here is the connection: Do you guys know what might be the problem? It is my first time buying a lavalier mic so I dont know the requirements.
