How to: Push-to-Mute

Method 1 (via Push-to-Talk)

If your game/app supports Push-to-Talk, you can get a Push-to-Mute by letting AutoPTT press the Push-to-Talk key for you.

Instructions:

• Click on Audio in the left side menu
• Set Activation Mode to Voice Activity
• Adjust Activation Threshold by dragging the little triangle under it so that the bar goes into the green when you speak
• Click on Hotkeys in the left side menu
• Add a hotkey for Push-to-Talk 1 (AutoPTT will press/release this key)
• Add a hotkey for Push-to-Mute (Push-to-Talk 1)

Method 2 (via Open Mic / Voice Activation)

If your game/app does not support Push-to-Talk, you’ll have to instead mute and unmute the mic system-wide.

Instructions:

• Click on Audio in the left side menu
• Set Activation Mode to Push-to-Talk (because this keeps the mic unmuted by default)
• Click on Hotkeys in the left side menu
• Add a hotkey for Push-to-Mute (Global)
