What key do you use for mumble push to talk? I had it bound to caps lock, but as ques pointed out in a newbie mix the other day, it's not great for air strafing and talking a the same time (not sure if that actually happens very much)
I rebound to middle mouse, which seems to work fine for me, I'm just curious to see whether anybody else has a key that works better.

I use shift, which also doesn't work well with jumping. It hasn't been a big deal though, I just comm directly before or after I jump.

All my mouse buttons have binds already :(

Mouse4 or just use voice activated control. If I'm going to not be talking to my team I have a key, F9, bound to mute me in mumble.

I use voice activity. Although it does depend on both your mic and your surroundings, you should still be able to set it up so it doesn't pick up everything. My teammates only hear my keyboard when I talk. I also have a button to toggle Deafen and a button to toggle Mute for mumble.

I use `(~). Can push it easily with my pinky. Only thing that is annoying is games that don't let you rebind console you have to just turn off console and turn it on when you want to use it.

I used to use v for the longest time, but switched to a mouse4 recently, and let me tell you, it makes a world of difference! If you have a mouse with side buttons, there is no reason you shouldn't bind it to mouse4/5.
