Noob Question: Cannot Get Ext. In Working on macOS

[pangular]

Noob question, I guess...
I'm using Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 on macOS Catalina and have already configured input/output in Audio preferences.
The problem is, no signal is coming from the interface.
I have tried another DAW (Studio One) and everything is working fine there, with the same setup. On the other hand, Live is ignoring another sound interface too (PreSonus Quantum) - That's why I'm thinking I must be doing something wrong in Live.

It basically allows me to set up input / output properly (based on the interface's configuration), and the output is working fine, but not seeing signal from the external input, in other words, I'm not seeing "green" here:

P.S. I'm using Ableton Live 10 Trial version on macOS Catalina

it's almost certainly caused by the default security/privacy settings covered in the second link above...

Yes! That microphone thing was apparently causing the problem. Here's another similar post too: viewtopic.php?t=232883

Thanks!
