Elgato Wave:3 MK.2
A New Era of Digital AudioWave:3 delivers studio-quality audio in a compact USB microphone. Inside, a Wave FX Processor powers onboard DSP effects and Clipguard 2.0, shaping your voice in real time and stopping distortion before it starts. It also enables VST inserts, routing your effects seamlessly into any app with ultra-low monitoring latency—no virtual microphones needed. Adjust on the fly with intuitive controls like tap-to-mute, then dial in your levels with visual feedback and Auto Gain. Configure device settings and command your entire audio setup directly in Wave Link, or using any Stream Deck device. Wave:3 proves professional sound doesn’t require complexity.
Great Sound From the Start

Essential controls are right there on the mic, while VST effects slot in without slowing you down. No extra gear. No complicated setup. Just great sound from the start.

Unclippable Audio
Elgato's intelligent anti-distortion system creates a layered defense that makes clipping virtually impossible, no matter how loud things get. Powered by your device’s Wave FX Processor, Clipguard lets you express yourself freely without holding back or watching levels.
How it WorksAs your signal moves from analog to digital, Clipguard automatically applies safeguards to prevent clipping before it can occur. Turn it on once for protection forever, without ever compromising your sound quality.
Multi-range CaptureStacked ADC converters work together to stop overload at the source.
Internal 32-bit FloatMassive headroom means volume spikes never hit the digital limit.
Final Output ControlDigital limiters smooth out sudden peaks before they hit your system.

One App for All Your Audio
Wave LinkWave Link gives you full control over your Wave hardware, but that’s just the start. Apply and customize effects, add a soundboard to voice chat, create a separate recording mix, and so much more. Everything you need for professional sound, all in one place.
Mix SmarterWave Link is tailored to creators, not DJs. Instead of vertical channels, you get a clean horizontal matrix-sources on the left, mixes on the right-so you can see where every signal flows, and what happens along the way.
Audio for Every DestinationSend tailored mixes to stream, VOD, Discord, a second PC, or wherever your workflow needs them. Each mix gets its own routing, levels, effects, and label. The kind of granular control found in elite broadcast environments, now built into Wave Link.
Stack & StreamlineGroup multiple apps and sources in single channels. For example, Zoom, Teams, and Discord in one-Spotify and Chrome in another. Even system sounds and alerts can be grouped. That way, you're always focused on what you're making, not what you're managing.
Unite Your GearConnect up to 4 Elgato Wave devices plus any third-party mics, interfaces, or capture cards. Use what you've got. Add what you want.
Dial in Your VoiceUse VST3 (Windows) or AU (macOS), get from Elgato Marketplace, or bring your own.
Your Gear, Your WayPersonalise your setup, effects, and more.
Voice FocusBring studio sound to virtually any setup.
Stream Deck ControlAdjust volume, mute inputs, trigger effects, and switch mixes in real time. All without leaving your workflow. Much like a physical mixing console, but without the limitations.
