I have a DDJ-FLX 4 and running Rekordbox 6.7.6 on windows 11.
I purchased a Behringer B1 mic to and plugged it into the Controller. Not working. I read that this condenser mic needs "Phantom power" and the FLX does not provide this. So I went out and purchased a Trumix MX2 2 channel USB mixer that does provide the Phantom Power" 48v.
Still no joy. I know the mic is working as I can hear it via headphones on the Trumix.
I also cannot get the Microphone Panel to display on Rekordbox so I can select the Mic. I am clicking on the show/hide mixer panel and have tried re-installing Rekordbox but still no joy.
Any ideas please?

-Open up system preferences

-Select the mixer tab

-Toggle to Low Latency Mode
This should make the microphone work while Rekordbox is open!

You're encountering a very common error when setting up your microphone with the DDJ-FLX4! The core issue is: The FLX4's microphone input is hardware-based (hardware passthrough). This means the sound from the microphone port on the back of the FLX4 goes directly to the RCA output (Master Out) of the console, and it doesn't transmit a digital signal (audio data the freak circus) via USB cable to the computer for Rekordbox to process. That's why you don't see the Microphone Panel appear in the software.
