Configured Controller For "Push To Talk" In Discord And OBS Studio
[ Sunday January 30th 2022 at 12:13 pm ]
I recently purchased a Turtle Beach Recon Controller with the idea that the 2 Quick Action Buttons on the back of the controller would be my Push To Talk buttons. I've just got this to work.
- After connecting the controller I had to begin by rebooting the computer. This is what it took for Windows 10 to identify the controller and install the related drives.
- Then I followed the manufacturers hardware instructions for mapping the quick action buttons to the corresponding stick click.

Setting up Push To Talk with Discord was easy:
- Settings
- Voice & Video
- Input Mode
- Push To Talk
- Shortcut
- Press Left Action Button to map it
-
Setting up Push To Talk for OBS Studio requires an extra step. It requires a keyboard - controller mapping. I used F10. Joy2Key fills this need.
- Download and install Joy2Key
- Follow the steps on their web site for mapping the Right Action Button to a chosen key on your keyboard. I used F10.
