The mike is good and so is the connection it would seem since I got recorded using the mike and M-Audio using Windows "Voice Recorder". I can't get ANY signal into Sonar X2, however. I have included what my preferences look like. PLEASE help! Thanks so much!

 

 
 
 

 

I have tried for HOURS and HOURS to be able to record from my mike.

ASIO4All could be interfering with the M-Audio driver. Maybe uninstalling the ASIO4All software completely and configuring the DAW using the M-Audio driver will get better results. Here is the hardware setup guide, enter your interface and software to get the setup instructions.

Condenser? Dynamic? Do you have phantom power on if condenser?
Correct input selected?

Where are you getting this info from Steve? All i see apart form his words are 2 icons which could be picture placeholders

It is possible to see the images by copying the broken links.
 
The OP made a common mistake attempting to insert a page reference instead of the image url in the image tags. Of course, new users are not allowed to create links anyway so it took some doing just to get the broken images on the page.

Agreed, dump ASIO4ALL.

Use MAudio's own drivers for the Audio interface. Not ASIO4ALL. The Audio ones should work better, after all they're the ASIO drivers supplied by the manufacturer for their interfaces. ASIO4ALL is not.
 
As Scook says, you may need to uninstall ASIO4ALL to get the Audio drivers working properly, you may also need to uninstall then reinstall the Audio drivers following MAudio's installation instructions.

if it's a USB mic it won't work in ASIO mode with other devices, you'll have to use WDM or MME (don't know if new WASAPI mode supports multiple different devices?)

I just tryed an experiment. 
I have Asio4all on a laptop I use at work which I only work with midi files on in Home Studio. 
 
I brought my Scarlett 6i6 in today and insstalled the Focusrite driver. 
I booted Sonar and selected all the 6i6 Boxes and unchecked asio4all. It work without issue. 
I also played videos and Media player all played via the Scarlett. 
So I re booted computer, re opened Sonar , still using the 6i6. 
I turned the 6i6 off and Sonar let me re connect to the Asio4all, it worked. I turned the Scarlett back on, Sonar asked if I'd like to use this device , yes, unchecked asio4all and re checked all the 6i6 boxed , hit OK and it worked. 
 
So everything I tried shows there is no conflict with using Asio4all alongside (at least) my Focusrite  ASIO drivers. 
I think there where issues in the past but somehow I think asio4all is now improved and we need to re look at it in a different way. 
 
Of note is I tried to use asio4all with the Scarlett 6i6 and it only gave me 2 inputs , channel 3/4 and the SPDIF and the MIDI where all missing. So it certainly sucks as a driver replacement for a real audio interface but it does seem the best option when there is no ASIO driver available. WASAPI was also failed to give me all my in/out as well as it refused to work in 44.1. It wanted only 48. 
 
Anyhow, there should be no reason to uninstall asio4all from the OP computer. But he should choose the M Audio driver, unless,,, I've have bad experience with Maudio drivers in the past and so there might be a huge difference between my 6i6 and the M Audio ASIO driver quality.
