Question / Help How to Mute Mic In Game But Still Talk On Stream?

[SledgeTheWrestler]

As the title says. I want to be able to mute the mic in-game only and easily be able to toggle it on and off. That way I can mute the mic in-game whenever I need to address the stream and hit the hotkey to turn it back on whenever I need to talk to somebody in-game. I haven't been able to figure this out in OBS yet. Any help would be appreciated.

Most likely you will have to have 2 seperate push to talks in OBS. One that matches your game's push to talk and one that doesn't.
Example

Space bar - Talk to stream and game
Alt - Talk to Stream only

Personally I just leave a live mic to my stream (with the noise gate on) and use a push to talk for the game comms. I tweaked the noise gate to prevent background noise from activating it. And if I really want to mute the mic, there's a push button on/off on the mic itself.
