Earmuff Mode is a feature that allows a user to reduce the volume of other users outside a customizable radius around the user. Earmuff mode can be accessed by the Quick Menu through the Audio tab, in Main Menu's settings tab, under Audio & Voice. The shortcut for quickly toggling on and off Earmuff Mode is double-clicking the Audio tab on the Quick Menu.

While Earmuff Mode is enabled, other users can see if another user has it enabled by looking at the top right of their nameplate as seen below:
