Strange, since that sounds like somewhat larger in diameter than the size
we refer to as 3.5mm audio jack - metric measurement system - which is the
standard audio connection jack/socket size for simple/normal things - maybe
closer to what I'd think of as an actual guitar jack, which is somewhat
thicker/larger.
For example, an inch is something like 24.8mm, so if I divide that by 4,
then it works out to 6.2mm, whereas the standard, smaller audio jack size
here is 3.5mm, but anyway.
But, you might be able to get an adapter, or something, if it's a different
size from your standard headphone jack?

Hi Jacob,
I have a headset mic with a 1/4 inch jack. Won't fit into anything on my
laptop.
Any ideas?
Be well.
Andre

That would really depend on your laptop itself - my one laptop has 3 audio
jack sockets on the front edge - earphones/speakers, microphone, and stereo
line-in.
But some of my previous/other machines had similar audio sockets on their
sides, at the back, next to power jack socket, etc., etc.

Subject: [audacity4blind] External Microphone
Hi list,
Please be patient with me. I am not trained in this area.
I am new to Audacity and have it downloaded onto my laptop. My question is
this. How to I plug in external microphones? Do I need some kind of
interface box or something like that? If so how and where do I get one.
Thanks in advance.
Andre
