If you need a stylish, compact and reliable audio interface for your streaming/podcast/recording sessions, Elgato's Wave XLR is for you. The USB device combines several devices in itself and offers features that are not available in common audio interfaces. These include special anti-distortion technology, a capacitive mute button, direct integration with Wave Link custom mixing software, and an interchangeable front panel.
The multifunctional knob allows you to adjust input gain, adjust output volume, fade between mic and PC mix, and turn phantom power on or off.
Another handy feature is the capacitive sensor that lets you mute the signal by tapping on it. At the same time, the rear panel offers an XLR input for your microphone, USB-C connection to connect to your computer, and a mini-jack headphone output.
In the future, there will be various front panels to give your Wave XLR a visual twist. Elegant or funky, everything is possible.
Often there are low-frequency noises that are not wanted on the recording. Thanks to the switchable low-cut filters at 80 and 120 Hz, you can quickly get rid of this problem!
A reliable, ultra-low-noise preamplifier with a boost of up to 75 dB has been built in to ensure that your microphone sounds great. Whether you're using a condenser or a dynamic model, you can connect and use any XLR mic with 48V phantom power.
You are not a sound engineer and prefer it uncomplicated? Thanks to the anti-clipping technology, you don't have to pay too much attention to the level, which can be especially useful in live streams. Focus on your project, vocals or podcast and let the Wave XLR do the work. But how does it work?
When the input signal peaks, special Clipguard technology instantly routes the sound to a second, lower-volume signal path. So you get clean audio - no matter how loud you scream ;)
Get full control over the mix with the included Wave Link software. It was specially designed for content creators and is therefore not only intuitive to use but also compatible with popular platforms such as Twitch, Youtube, etc. Other features include the creation of separate sub-mixes for your audience and for yourself, as well as the mixing of all incoming and outgoing signals, be it game audio, voice chats, samples and much more.
