Hear yourself through headphones (using a key)

[Chrizy]

Hello there fellows! I am currently using a blue yeti microphone and some standard headphones, and when I connect the headphones to the microphone jack I can hear myself. Great. The problem is that I constantly hear my keyboard all the time, so therefor I wonder if there is any way I could press down a key or a button to hear my self and then release to not hear my self. If that makes any sense :) Basically so it activates when I press down t for e.g to speak ingame.

This can be a variety of things. Go into your sound settings at the bottom right of the Windows Task bar and open up your headphones in playback devices. Go to levels and turn your microphone level to the bottom. Tell me if this works, if it doesn't I have another possible solution.

In terms of the key though, I don't think you can do that easily.

That didn't work, it didn't effect anything.

Try doing the same but go to recording devices then microphone, then untick "listen to this device".
