Default How do I select my microphone to record in Reaper?

So I have a Focusrite Scarlett Solo audio interface and a condenser microphone, both of which seem to be working perfectly. The problem however is that when I record a track on Reaper it seems to use my laptop's inbuilt microphone as opposed to the plugged in condenser microphone. Does anyone know how I can select the Focusrite instead of the inbuilt microphone from my laptop?

Thanks!

In general check the following:

1) Make sure that the Focusrite is selected as audio device in Reaper, first
2) And select the appropriate Track input (where the condenser mic is connected to)
