Elgato Wave XLR

Wave XLR is a compact USB interface that gives your microphone superpowers – with features you won't find in standard audio interfaces. These include special Clipguard technology to prevent distortion, a capacitive mute button, and direct integration with the custom Wave Link mixing software. You can even swap out the front panel and knobs.

If you don't want to give up your XLR microphone, Wave XLR is just right for you, as this compact USB interface empowers your microphone.

Wave XLR combines several devices into one and offers features not found in standard audio interfaces: specialized anti-distortion technology, a capacitive mute button, direct integration with the custom mixing software Wave Link, and an interchangeable front panel.

Give your microphone the necessary boost without an external preamp. With ultra-low-noise gain of up to 75 dB, you'll be heard loud and clear even with a notoriously insensitive microphone, while 48V phantom power breathes life into condenser microphones.

Now you don't have to keep an eye on the level while you're live, nor try to fix distorted audio in post-production. When the input level peaks, the special Clipguard technology immediately routes the sound to a second, lower-volume signal path. This way, you get clean audio – no matter how loud you scream.
