Can you mute this device? I'm buying it for measuring distances on film sets and I'd rather not make any noise doing so! Thank you.

It does not make any beeping sounds, only soft clicking sound like a shutter or mirror movement. It appears to be mechanical and a part of the process so I do not think it can be turned off. It is less noisy than average SLR camera shutter/mirror.

You are correct, If you want it off, You have to either unplug it at the Microphone, orat the other end. OR you can just turn it way down at your Mixer or Amplifier.

One option is to mute the monitor. The second option is to use a longer HDMI cable and position the monitor some distance away from the camera

This device is perfect for this application. However, keep in mind as always you are measuring ALL sounds in the area of the device. That is , if for example your ramps are outside and near traffic you will be measuring those sounds as well as any talking, shouting or music. These are sensitive and 'relatively' accurate - give the device a few seconds to 'settle down' / stabilize after turning it on. Expect wide fluctuations in your readings consistent with the actual sound levels the device is detecting. I've seen reviewers of various devices declare the devices as inaccurate because the readings were erratic when in fact the devices are merely 'reporting' exactly what they are 'hearing'... In a very quiet indoor setting I have seen this device show minor fluctuations from the loud ticking of a clock or traffic outside on a residential street 100-200 yards away. I use my device in a controlled - relatively sound proof music studio where its sensitivity and relative accuracy make it a perfect device for my application. Good Luck!!!

You should be able to. I use mine while playing games through steam with no problem. There is no mute button, but otherwise no complaints.

Yes you can mute it and either have it on Vox so the screen will stay dark until it picks up sound or just leave it on On so it stays on but it is muted.

Yes. Can't remember what I did to silence it because I don't think it was in the manual. Trial and error.

Yes you can. If it is silent(what you are filming), you can slightly hear the lens zooming in and out. I just tried it at work!

No, there is no option to silence the music. You seldom notice it after the first thousand times. The usefulness of the boiler far outweighs the short sound. If mine stopped working, I would immediately buy another.

If sound can be suppressed, I am unaware as to how to do it. Sorry I cannot help you. My best advice would be to go to the Brother website and if they have an 800 customer service number, call them and ask them.

No you cannot mute from the microphone. You would have mute or turn down volume from your mixer.

Ha ha. Of course it has a mute button! Only it's called "stop". Or you can just unplug it.

Hi Tammy. There is an on off button on the headset. It actually turns off the unit, so you would not continue to hear your customer, but I do use it for muting if it's brief. Hope that helps.

Yes, you can set it so there are no sounds. There is a volume scroll on the side from loud to silent.

If it sounds, anyone can turn it off. Not sure what purpose it would serve when you are not present. The battery probably would not last several hours.

Yes,you can mute the key volume.That would get a little annoying at time's.

It mutes when there is no pressure on the headband. I have had the headphones for a few months and never had a problem with the feature. I find it very useful especially in a live or studio environment.
