I can't seem to get my microphone to pick up my vocals well. I have the Mic volume turned as high as it will go but when I record I can barely hear it and it doesnt even show the peaks on the clip thats recording. Do you think I might need a new mic or what?

What's your setup? What kind of mic? What hardware is it attached to? Your mic may need phantom power turned on through whatever your input device is.

As is pointed out ad infinitum on this forum, it helps if you post your system specs on your profile before asking hardware-related questions.
