How do I choose a different microphone or camera in Stinger?

Settings › Voice & Track lists every input on your Mac. Pick your USB mic, interface, or camera there, and Stinger uses it instead of the system default.

Where do I change the microphone?

Settings › Voice & Track › Microphone lists every input on the Mac: USB mics, audio interfaces, aggregates, and the built-in mic. Pick the one you want and Voice/Track mode uses it regardless of what macOS has set as the system default.

Where do I change the camera?

Settings › Voice & Track › Camera sets which camera Lens Check shows and which one Stinger uses. Pick any external webcam, Continuity Camera, virtual camera, or the built-in FaceTime camera. Both default to the system device when you first open Stinger.

How do I see what my chosen camera looks like before a call?

Use Lens Check to frame yourself: it shows the chosen camera in the prompter panel for four seconds so you can adjust your setup. Lens Check is in the Prompter menu.
