Hi Chi-gun\_Huang,  
Thanks for using Zoom SDK. Yes, you can use do something like the following:

```auto
meetingItem.setAudioType(MeetingItem.AudioType.AUDIO_TYPE_THIRD_PARTY_AUDIO);
meetingItem.setThirdPartyAudioInfo(thirdPartyAudioInfo);

```

You can refer to the following part in our example.[https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-android/blob/f11f469aa571f6a06b1806c5fdbf92b98d0e2447/mobilertc-android-studio/sample/src/main/java/us/zoom/sdksample/otherfeatures/scheduleforloginuser/ScheduleMeetingExampleActivity.java#L226](https://github.com/zoom/zoom-sdk-android/blob/f11f469aa571f6a06b1806c5fdbf92b98d0e2447/mobilertc-android-studio/sample/src/main/java/us/zoom/sdksample/otherfeatures/scheduleforloginuser/ScheduleMeetingExampleActivity.java#L226)

Hope this helps .Thanks!

Hi,  
Thanks for the reply. After analyzing your requirement again, actually we found out we do not support usb microphone at this point. I have made it as a feature request and pass it to our engineering team. Please follow our Github repo for any updates. Pardon the inconvenience.

Thanks!
