How do I open and close my microphone quickly during a Live performance?

During a Live on Klaxoon, managing the activation and deactivation of your microphone is essential to ensure smooth communication and limit parasitic noise. You can turn your microphone on or off manually, but also use a handy keyboard shortcut: "Press space to speak".

1 - Access to settings

Access the audio settings by clicking on the icon ⚙️ in the Live interface

2 - Enable the "Push space to talk"

Check the "Push space to talk" option.

3 - Use the "Push space to talk"

Your mic will remain muted by default.

To speak, hold down the space key. Release it to mute the microphone automatically.

Why use the "Press spacebar to speak "?

Noise reduction : You only play sound when you speak
Smoother interaction : Faster than manually muting/unmuting the mic
Ideal for active meetings : Allows for occasional talk without disrupting the session
