#DISCORD PUSH TO TALK NOT WORKING FREE#
It's handy!īecause the two keys are next to each other and it is comfortable to press them with left hand so my right hand is free and I can do sth on the screen
No idea ) That's the suggestion I got on the very first chrum. These keys are located next to each other, in the bottom-left hand corner on Macbook's keyboard.īuttons close to each other (easy to press), On the corner of keyboard (easy to find and remember), Does not conflict with combinations used by apps What are the advantages of this particular shorcut? By the fact that we do have an fn key on our keyboards at all, you've probably guessed that most of us work on a laptop, or using a keyboard which mirrors the one on the laptop (such as Apple's keyboard which is the same as on the MacBook Pro). I'm among them, so clearly I agree that it's the best choice. Out of the 32 people who participated in the survey, 12 use fn+ctrl (37.5%). So, what is the best keybind for push-to-talk that could be used also on discord for example? I've been asked about this independently a couple of times recently: what is the most popular shortcut at SoftwareMill? Not knowing the answer, I conducted a short survey. It's kind of an always-online call, muted by default, unmuted with a keyboard shortcut. Everybody (who's not muted) can hear you and respond. If you're not familiar with the concept, in TeamSpeak you join a room, and when you want to say something to your team members (well, other people in the same room), you activate voice transmission with a special keyboard shortcut.

You might have last used it when playing your favorite PlayStation game, but it turns out it's also very useful for remote work.
Part of our solution is to use a push-to-talk system, TeamSpeak in our case. Being a distributed company and working remotely creates new challenges when it comes to efficient communication.
