How to: Discord Priority Speaker with Voice Activation

This is a short guide on how to use AutoPTT to get voice-activated priority speaker on Discord, which currently requires push-to-talk.

  1. Open the Discord settings.

  2. Under “APP SETTINGS” click on “Keybinds”.

  3. At the top, click on “Add a Keybind.”

  4. In the added row, set “Action” to “Push-to-Talk (Priority)” and then click on “Record Keybind.”

  5. Press the key you want to use for priority speaker. This should be a key you normally don’t use for anything, like F12.

  6. In AutoPTT, select your input device from the “Device” box.

  7. Set “PTT Key” to the key you bound to priority speaker on Discord.

  8. Set “Activation Mode” to “Voice Activity.”

  9. Adjust “Activation Threshold” and “Release Delay” while speaking normally. The “Current Value” field will indicate when your PTT key is being pressed (green = above threshold, yellow = within release delay) and when it isn’t (gray).

Here’s essentially the same thing in video format:
