Is there an inline mute for the mic?

Not natively, but it comes with a USB adapter that has a microphone mute button with an LED so you know when it's on or off. If you're using a higher end sound card I would stay away from USB adapters tho. Almost all VoIP programs have a push-to-talk feature, even Skype can be set to push-to-talk under the advanced settings in the hotkeys column.

If you're using the USB, yes. If you're using the headphone jack on your computer for them, no.

No silent call option on the two I have, but the frequent range is out of the new digital wireless mic range so that is not a problem.

There is a microphone mute switch on the volume control. Muted sound has to be done via hotkey/desktop action/etc.

Hello W. Fisher. On the volume control base there is a slide up/down button for you to put the mic in mute. Many time I forget to slide the button back up to un-mute the headset. So if you a looking for a flashing light to indicate if the headset is in mute mode, it does not have one. Sorry....

No mute button, but since it's plug and play I suppose you could just unplug it when you didn't want it to record.

Yes you just unplug it from the switch, but understand you will not have inline Mic controls it will just be sound and voice.

According to their customer support, you can use the mute button on your phone to mute the speaker's mic. I just ordered one of these units and if I find it does not work this way, I'll post another answer.

Yes! Within the settings menu "tools" there is a mute selection. Either on or off for mute. Once mute is selected (on) there is absolutely no audible sound for camera operations.

To mute or unmute the microphone during a call, press and release both the Volume Up "+" and Volume Down "-" buttons

Yes, there is a button to toggle the microphone mute. However, there is no speaker mute button as there are already buttons to adjust volume also.

Sorry, but I am coming up with the same thing as you. The only thing I can figure is that you may just tap it for mute and hold down for off. I have not had a chance to try this yet so I am just guessing. Hope this is of some help.

Not that I have found. I have used it several times to call my wife and she was able to hear me perfectly well. But then, I did not buy them for the mic.

I'm not quite sure because my corded base does not have a mute button. But there is a mute button on the headset itself so you can just use that... I use it all the time since it is very easy to use.

It's a mute button for the mike. But it is one pain with the headset since there is no indicator (led for example) that indicates you are muted or not.

Unfortunately no. No way to mute except using the inline control or via console or pc

Don't know about a mute, bit it does have a volume control. I like the headset a lot.

Yes, it does, and an indicator on the base showing mute status. When I was using it with Windows XP, it fully integrated with Microsoft Lync, as well; but under Win7 x64, the mute on the headset is independent of Lync mute status (both work, but neither knows what the other has done). That can be a plus -- nobody else can un-mute you.
