Is there a Firefox extension that allows me to toggle microphone access so that I'm only sending mic audio when I want to? (lemm.ee)

I am looking for a firefox extension that will allow me to toggle microphone access, preferrably per tab, for example disabling it while I'm not speaking in a zoom meeting to reduce tracking.

Edit: clarification due to misunderstanding: i want something that lets me toggle actually giving a site mic input without removing permissions

I guess the use-case is having the mic available to multiple tabs but only actively talking to one.

yes kinda but also only actually giving input when i want to

Is there any reason you can't just mute your mic entirely and need to specifically mute it for one tab?
