Mute Microphone

[Cdub16]

Simple question. How do I mute the microphone programmatically from within an iOS app?

For your own app there is no need to mute the microphone. Just ignore what comes from the microphone and your will achieve the same result. For other apps or for the phone you have no right to mute the microphone, so forget about it. It is not possible.

Sorry, I now this is an old thread, but is exactly what I need. How can I ignore the microphone input? I tried with AVAudioSession categories and AVAudioRecorder settings, but nothing works for me.

I have multiple AVAudioPlayer's and one AVAudioRecorder objects, with AVAudioSession configured with AVAudioSessionCategoryPlayAndRecord.

Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

AVAudioRecorder can only record from the microphone. So just stop recording and the mic will be muted.
