audio interface inputs not working in Garageband

My audio interface is working fine for Garageband outputs on my Macbook. But Garageband won't pick up the inputs from it, even though I've selected it in settings. Has anyone else had this?

Garageband AU Multiband Compressor UI not working I recently updated my Macbook and after updating, the Garageband AU Multiband Compressor UI is not displaying properly. I have reinstalled the sound library, as well as Garageband itself and still no luck. It seems that all other plugins function normally, but this plugin's UI specifically is not working properly.

GarageBand not picking up audio All of a sudden GarageBand won’t pick up any audio. In the mac settings it will pick up both my usb mic and the internal mic fine however, in GarageBand it won’t pick up either. It was picking up both last week and working fine but it’s suddenly stopped today. I use it regularly and never had a problem before. I have tried/checked: restarting both the MacBook and garageband unplugging - re plugging in the mic etc. The privacy settings are correct the input settings are correct The latest versions are running Any help/insight would be great thanks!

If you are getting *something*, it could be the mic mode:

If not have you set the privacy setting?

Thanks Keith

Yeah, it turns out it was the mic mode on voice isolation.
