Releases: Software-Solutions-Australia/Always-Push-to-Talk
Always Push-to-Talk v2.2.9.1
Always PTT v2.2.9.1
Always PTT will keep your default capture device (your mic) muted unless an assigned push-to-talk key is being pressed.
It will only work with whichever recording device you have set as your default.
This program by default will set the CapsLock key as a universal push-to-talk (PTT) key while Always PTT is running.
It will appear as an icon in the task tray which has a menu when you right-click on the icon.
You can set another key to be the push-to-talk key by right clicking the Always PTT icon in the Windows task tray (bottom right of your screen), hover your mouse over the "Assign Push-to-Talk Key" menu, from there you can select various keys to use as your push-to-talk key.
Always PTT is designed for Windows 10 and has not been tested on any other versions of Windows.
FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS:
-
Assign a push-to-talk key that works universally across all programs and games in Windows.
-
Keeps microphone properly muted which is great for privacy when not using the mic.
-
On-Screen-Display (OSD) to show when the mic is active (can be enabled from the settings and you can change the position and size of the OSD).
-
Beep when mic is activated and deactivated (can be enabled in settings).
-
Less than 3MB in size and uses only a small amount of memory to operate.
-
Option to run at Windows startup (can be enabled in settings).

Right-click the Always PTT icon and go to the "Assign Push-to-Talk Key" submenu, then select your desired push-to-talk key from the various submenus. The keys are organised into categories to make it easy.
- Test that Always PTT is working. You can do this from the Recording tab in the Sound window or in an application that detects sound.
USAGE INSTRUCTIONS:
- Always PTT will keep your microphone muted while it is running except for while you are holding the assigned push-to-talk key down (CapsLock by default, you can change the assigned key).

- To exit Always PTT and return the assigned push-to-talk key to its original functionality right-click the Always PTT icon in the task tray and select Exit. This will immediately exit Always PTT and return the assigned push-to-talk key to its original functionality.
HOW TO SET DEFAULT DEVICE:
