On my software the (microphone) slider is on the top line to the immediate right of the two horizontal level meter displays.

Does not work. If you hover over the control you get a help bubble that says 'Recording level, Unavailable; use system mixer). The gain control mimic on the slider moves to the extreme right hand end of the scale and stays there - which seems logical.

If you change the recording source to be the iMac's built in microphone then the level control functions as you would expect and can be moved up and down.

I am running Audacity v2.2.0.
