How to adjust the volume while recording

If you want to record or mute the microphone sound with a specific hotkey, select the microphone as the Secondary Sound Device and check the 'Push-To-Talk or Push-To-Mute’ option.
Please choose one of the two options.
- [PTT] Only record while pushing : You can record your microphone while pushing the hotkey.
