I have I mic plugged in to a PreAmp and going "Line In" to the Input on my Laptop,
I can see that there is audio coming in cause when I hit the Microphone icon to start the Voice over, The meter is moving to my voice.
When I start to record the voice over, I can hear the music track but not my voice until I listen back to what I recorded.
Dose anyone have a clue of how to fix this problem?
That's the way it works when you use the built in microphone. I don't know if it is supposed to be any different with an external mic. What would be the advantage in being able to hear your voice while recording a voice over? Is it for singing purposes? Just curious.
In any event try checking your input and output sound settings in System Preferences/Sound. Also check your settings by clicking on the little slider emblem to the right of the red recording button.
See if any of the above addresses the issue you raised. I suspect that being unable to hear one's voice while recording probably is just the way the voice over software is designed.

It only works when I use an audio interface and select that on the input Source.
The reason I use an external preamp is that I use some nice compressor and limiter for better sound before I go Line In to the computer.
iMove doesn't seem to be able to use audio plugins to put effects on the voice, dose it?
I saw that there is a little list to modify the low & Hi and cut off but they don't sound that good.
Thanks for trying.
Forgot to say I have a Mackbook pro, Mojave 10.14.6, iMovie 10.1.14
Unfortunately, iMovie does not accept third party plugins.
It is a very good consumer level video editor, though. So, I guess we
need to accept what the software gives us.

iMovie: Why can't I hear my Microphone until after I recorded my voice?
