GitHub - andyleeqd/PushToTalk: This is an application which will keep all your microphones muted until you press a designated key (push to talk). It also reduces the volume by an adjustable level of all the other applications while the key is down. It works globally, so it will still work running in the background while a full screen application, such as a game, is in the foreground. It's intended to add Push To Talk and Volume Reduction functionality to voice applications that don't have it.

------------------

About
-----
This is a simple tool that gives you a single "Push To Talk"
hotkey for all of your voice applications such as the following:
o Skype
o Google Hangout
o In-game voice
o Anything with a voice-activated or always-on microphone.

What does it do?
o Unmutes all microphones when you press a configurable key.
o Reduces main volume while the key is down.
o Works globally, so it can run in the
background while a game is in the foreground, for example.

Development
-----------
Push To Talk is written in C# and uses Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF).
All you need for development is Visual Studio. Note that this was written using Visual Studio 2010 Express, but
can be compiled still with the latest Visual Studio Community: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/

To Build:
Open PushToTalk.sln
Press F5.
PushToTalk should build and run.
