Gaming Audio Setup
Feb 18 2025
When I'm gaming with my friends we use Discord for audio. I like doing:
AirPods Pro mic is ok but the wired AirPods mic is better.
This allows to me to walk around and still hear if my friends need me. I don't like auto mic since I make random noises. I suppose I could use AirPods Pro mute gesture but I wouldn't want to keep moving my hand from my keyboard to the AirPod.
Using L Caps Lock to activate mic pretty much doesn't conflict with any game we play, though sometimes annoying when I type text with L Caps enabled.
- AirPods Pro to listen to audio and my friends
- wired AirPods connected to my MBP audio-in for my voice
- Talk only when Left Caps-Lock key is pressed
