Hardware Microphones only work on certain games

[AdamBrunt]

Hi all,

Anyone got any ideas about this ?

We have microphones bought off eBay which work fine when used with Disney HSM Sing It (loaded via CFG loader and using IOS 222-mload). But the same mics aren't recognised by U Sing (using the same method; CFG and IOS 222-mload).

Any ideas anyone ?

Depends on the manufacturer. There are a lot of non-oem (original equp manufacturer) made in china for a lot less that are not 100% compatible. This is true for many electronic and tech tools. Can be a great deal and work great in some cases, limited functionality, quality and may even damage and/or void warranty. Logitech is the go-to mic. device for most games.

thanks wii knee. shame

You'd have thought if a mic worked for one game it would work for them all

Sorry AdamBrunt. Probably set you back 10-20 bucks. Could've been worst but just keep it mind for future electronic equip purchases. Also beware b/c many ebay sellers say "OEM replacement" or "OEM compatible" which is not the same as just "OEM"!

Try another cios.
I think this game use cios with base 57.
Like cios 224 base 57 v5.1 or 250 base 57 d2x v9 r47.
I have U sing2 and works fine with cios 224 base 57 v5.1.

Not really - as we need replacement mics anyway. I don't think we'd ever tried any mic with U Sing before the this.

I'll give it a try. Is there any way I can find out which cIOS are currently installed and on which bases (if that makes sense) ?

You can use System Check for this : http://wiibrew.org/wiki/SysCheckGX

Thanks. I will give that a run when I get home.

in cfg loader just press 1 i think it is and go to info it will tell you the ios installed and their bases

Hmmm ... according to CFG loader, I don't have 224 installed at all and 250 is base 38 ???

Like cios 224 base 57 v5.1 or 250 base 57 d2x v9 r47.
I have U sing2 and works fine with cios 224 base 57 v5.1.

Installed both of those via ModMii and everything seemed to have installed fine. CFGloader now says they're both installed but has ??? next to each one and ... the mics don't work when using either

You should start the game with IOS224, to do this press 1 if you have the game selected, change the IOS and press 2 to save the setting. Then the game should work fine.

Tried that made no difference but ... oddly all the games (Disney Sing It, We Sing, We Sing Encore and U Sing) work on 222-mload when only Disney Sing It worked before. Very bizarre

You must have the mics plugged the wii before turning on the console.
This way it will be recognized by the wii.
Don't forget to choose the cios indicated for each game.

i love it when people say you need to use 224 or 250
the problem with comments like that is what you have and what i have in those IOS slots could be completely different

the mic games i have work on 223 mload in cfg the cios in that slot has a ios 37 base thats as much as i know about that
