Has anyone set up a simple Push to Talk for an audio source? I have an audio input(mic) that I need to remain muted unless a key(spacebar, etc) is pressed and held. I'm assuming this will be a Shortcut but I'm not having any luck getting it to work. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello. Assign your mic in a audiobus. Then make a shortcut -->audio-->Audiobus and everytime you press the shortcut button it will toggle on/off this bus and you talk/mute your audio

You would have to assign the mute on a button press ("down") and unmute on the button release ("up"). Afaik, keyboard shortcuts don't allow for up and down actions. You need a MIDI controller, Stream Deck or something similar for it.

@ jmbmichael

This is probably the best vMix tutorial video on that subject:
