You do not have a hardware mute button. There is an output mute, but not an input mute. I wrote one in about 10 lines of AppleScript and associated it with a hot key. It ~mostly~ works.
If you are talking about the application-specific software mute, I had such a terrible time finding it amongst all my open tabs and latency every time I wanted to type or speak that I wrote the above hardware-ish button.
- srtjstjsj 6y agoUse a keyboard shortcut. Since you only need it when typing, your fingers are there when you need it.
- ethanbond 6y agoGP did set it up to a keyboard shortcut. The problem they're calling out is needing to do it to the global input rather than app-specific. Many people use multiple VTC apps throughout the day.
- ethanbond 6y agoI wrote a Hammerspoon script to do the same, but Microsoft Teams unmutes the default input every time you join a call. Did you run into this/have any idea how to get around it?
- Hnrobert42 6y agoI do not run into that problem, but I don’t use Teams. I “mute” by setting the input volume to 0. Not sure if that helps.
