Discord: How to set up push to talk.

A short informative tutorial on how to set up “Push To Talk” in Discord.  As much as I love Discord for voice chatting, I can see how people will find it confusing.   I remember when I was new to Discord; it was so mind numbing that I ended up staring blankly at the screen and drooling on myself.

Ok, so yeah, follow these steps:

Pro Tip:  Download Discord to your desktop.  It’s so much better than messing with the website browser one. 

Step One:  Open your desktop Discord

Step Two: Go all the way to the bottom where your profile picture is.  You will see a icon that looks like a gear wheel. Click that.

Step Three:  Scroll down the side menu and look for Voice / Video and click that.

Step Four:  I’m assuming you will have your input and output device set up.  If not, this is where you need to do it at.

Step Five:  Check mark “Push to Talk”

Step Six: Click into the box and hold down two keys that you want to use.

Step Seven:  Click the ESC at the top.  It will automatically save your settings.

Note You can also do a mic / push to talk test on the same page.
