Martel Electronics Zoom mute foot pedal for court reporters

Stop Wearing Yourself Out During Remote Depositions

When you are writing, watching Zoom, listening carefully, and managing your CAT software at the same time, reaching for the mouse just to mute yourself becomes one more distraction. This foot pedal solves that problem instantly.

Keep Your Hands on the Writer

No more taking your hands off your steno machine to grab a mouse or hunt for the mute button on-screen.

Mute Instantly With One Tap

Tap once with your foot to mute. Tap again to unmute. It is fast, natural, and perfect for the way court reporters work.

Avoid Distracting Unmutes

Protect your workflow, reduce audio distractions, and avoid missing part of the record while you fumble with Zoom controls.

Mute and Unmute Zoom With Your Foot

This shows the whole court reporter workflow instantly: Zoom on one computer, CAT software on the other, hands on the writer, and mute control under your foot.

Built for the Real Two-Computer Court Reporter Setup

Many court reporters use one computer for Zoom and another for Case CATalyst or other CAT software. This foot pedal fits that exact workflow beautifully.

✓ One laptop runs Zoom
✓ One laptop runs your CAT software
✓ Your hands stay on your writer
✓ Your foot controls mute and unmute
✓ You stay focused instead of reaching for the mouse

Designed to Stop Zoom Fatigue

Remote depositions already demand enough focus. This gives court reporters one simple movement for mute control so they can stay calm, accurate, and in control.

✓ No more reaching for the Zoom button
✓ No more keyboard shortcut fumbling
✓ No more interrupting your writing flow
✓ Better control during live Zoom jobs

Perfect for the Two-Laptop Court Reporter Setup

Plug the foot pedal into the Windows computer running Zoom. Keep your writer and CAT software workflow uninterrupted on your other machine.

Laptop 1: Zoom Computer

Run Zoom here. The foot pedal connects to this Windows computer so you can mute and unmute without touching your mouse.

Laptop 2: CAT Software

Run Case CATalyst or your preferred CAT software here while keeping your hands on the writer and your attention on the deposition.

Your Foot: Mute Control

Tap once when you need privacy. Tap once again when you want to speak. No holding down the pedal. No interrupting your workflow.

Court reporters love this because it removes one of the most annoying parts of remote depositions — constantly reaching for the mouse just to mute or unmute.
