Sign In to Mumble

  1. In Guildwork, click on your name on the top-right corner of the page, and click "Sanely Insane".
  2. At the top left, click "Mumble". This is a link to sign directly in to our Mumble server. If you do not see this link, please follow these instructions to register as a member of SanelyInsane.
  3. Check the box next to "Remember my choice for mumble links.", then click "OK".

Configure Mumble

  1. When Mumble opens for the first time, it will launch a configuration wizard. For now, I recommend clicking "Cancel".
  2. Assuming you followed the above directions, you should already be logged in to our LS server as yourself. To change some settings, click "Configure", then "Settings".
  3. At the bottom-left, click "Advanced".
  4. At the top, choose the device that you want to use as your microphone.
  5. The multi-color bar represents audio input that your microphone is receiving. Play with the location of the "Silence Below" slider to find a good spot for it. When noise falls in this range, it will not be transmitted. This is the red range on the colored bar.
  6. Play with the location of the "Speech Above" slider to find a good spot for it. When noise falls above this range, it may be transmitted. This is the yellow range on the colored bar. Noise falling in the green range will definitely be transmitted.
  7. Click "Audio Output" on the left, then at the top, choose the device that you want to use to hear through when other people are speaking on Mumble.
  8. Click "OK" at the bottom-right to accept these settings.

Exit Mumble

  1. To exit, click "Server" on the top-left, then click "Quit Mumble".
