Hello Itterm,
We see you need some guidance in locating audio settings on your MacBook Air M2. The information below provides steps to locate both volume and microphone settings controls:
Turn your Mac volume up or down - Apple Support
"
- To change the volume on your Mac, click the Sound control
in the menu bar or Control Center, then drag the slider to adjust the volume (or use the Control Strip). - If the Sound control isn’t in the menu bar, choose Apple menu
> System Settings, then click Control Center 
in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.) Click the pop-up menu next to Sound on the right, then choose whether to show Sound in the menu bar all the time or only when it’s active.
