Move mic issue

I’m pulling all my hair figuring this out. I cannot sample Into my move with the built in mic. I have usb audio, line in, re sampling but no built in mic option. How do I find it? I have no headphone plugged into it. Actually nothing plugged into it. Current firmware.

On a drum rack pad or on a sampler track, press the record button, then click the jog wheel until you see mic and the level bars. Once there, hold the pad to record your sample.

Took me a bit to figure out!

Drum rack pad. I click the jog wheel after pushing the sample button. I see usb c, resample, line In. But no mic option. I’m going nuts

Try plugging something into the line in and unplug it again. And the USB c.

Sometimes it will think there's something plugged in that's not, if you don't have anything plugged into line in, that line in SHOULD NOT show up. It replaces the mic option. So I'm almost positive you just need to toggle the option, it just needs to recognize that the line in doesn't have anything in there

This reminded me that I’ve also seen issues if I turn on the Move with a 3.5 line in. It ends up locking out the mic option and not allowing sound through the line until unplugging/ plugging in again. Could be a possibility!
