Feature Request: Push-to-Talk

[tonious]

Many of us have to use a variety of voice channels. On my work PC, I have slack, skype, teams, discord, zoom and gotomeeting installed, and over the course of a week, I use all of them. Some of these apps don't support PTT, and they certainly do not all use the same hotkey.

There seem to be two standards in play for this:

• Push-to-Talk (i.e.: discord, ham radio, &c.) -- Mic is active while the button is pressed.
• Cough Switch (i.e.: DJs, podcasters) -- Mic is muted while the button is pressed.

Hi there, thanks for writing.

This seems somewhat out of scope for the project. However, there are some already available solutions that do what you've described.

In case you meant binding a physical button on the deej box itself as a PTT or cough switch, you could do that with no software changes, just pure electronics. Simply wire a push button (with or without an inverter, depending on which you need) to the relevant slider.

Oh that makes sense. Thanks!
