Most FIFINE USB microphones are plug-and-play and do not require a dedicated driver. They use the generic USB audio class driver built into your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux). That means in most cases, you can just plug your mic in and start recording.
When Should You Suspect a Driver Issue?
Mic not recognized by your computer or recording software
No sound or very low input volume
Robotic, distorted, or choppy audio
Audio dropping in and out
Mic disappears from the device list after working previously
Try trouble-shooting Before assuming it's a driver issue:
Try a different USB port (preferably on the back of your PC)
Use a different USB cable
Test the mic on another computer
Check privacy/sound settings to ensure mic access is enabled
If the problem persists, it's a driver issue.
How to Update or Reinstall the USB Audio Driver
Windows Users:
Update the Driver
Press Win + X and select Device Manager → Expand Sound, video and game controllers → Right-click FIFINE Microphone (or USB Audio Device) → Update driver → Search automatically.
2. Uninstall and Reinstall
Go back to Device Manager → Right-click the FIFINE mic → Uninstall device.
Check the box that says "Delete the driver software for this device".
Unplug the mic. Restart your computer. Plug the mic into a different USB port. Windows will automatically reinstall the generic driver.
3. Special Case
In some cases, leftover registry entries from previous audio devices can cause conflicts.
Download the Clean Usb Audio Registry application(unzip password is fifine)
Run the tool and click Clean → Restart your computer and reconnect the mic.
This often resolves persistent recognition or audio glitches.
Mac Users:
MacOS usually handles drivers automatically. If issues occur, try resetting the PRAM or using a different USB port.
