- michael-ax 5y agofwiw, there's a switch in every ext. mic. jack. plug in an un-wired connector, cut of the wiring post, smooth with a nail-file or put on a crowning drop of glue so it won't rip your bag and you're done.
- myself248 5y agoOften these are software, though. Yes there's a switch, but it just tells the audio subsystem to automatically select the plugged-in mic. You can still tell it to select the screen-frame mic instead.
- deadbunny 5y agoA software switch. You can test by pluggin in your unwired plug then go set to any program and select the internal mic and it'll work fine.
