QuestionLooking for a gaming microphone for my son (also be used for zoom calls, discourse & anything else he may want to record). Would like to minimize picking up background noise. Do I need to purchase anything else for this basic purpose? other than a mount
Asked 4 years ago by TheModernMuse.
- Answer Hi, Elgato's Wave Link software may help in reducing background noise. The Wave Shock Mount would also help prevent low-frequency noises. For additional help, please feel free to get in touch with us: support.elgato.com -Albert

QuestionDoes it work on XBOX?
Asked 5 years ago by David.
- Answer I'm gonna say probably not but that is only because you have to install the software on the pc for the mic to really work properly. I would suggest contacting Corsair or Elgato and asking them directly or check their websites for a compatible devices list to see if xbox is listed. It may work and just not have full functionality like it does on pc but would still pic up audio and have a gain adjustment knob.

QuestionWill the knob to control the headphone volume work for USB wireless headphones instead of those that use the 3.5mm to plug directly into the microphone? I'm wondering if the wireless Logitech G733 headset volume can be controlled by the mic volume knob
Asked 5 years ago by Mida4.
- Answer To be honest I have a arctis 7 wireless. I tried everything.. even had support on the line while trying to figure it out and these headphones would not get sound coming through.. the support agent was stumped as well. I finally made decision to use a 3.5mm wire from the mic to the dongle of the headphones and voila. Take from it what you will

Questionis there any best buy workers that have an idea of when this will be back in stock
Asked 5 years ago by Michael.
- Answer You are able to order it directly from the store, but you can only have it shipped to your home. You'd have to wait up to, at most, a week before receiving it. The website does not allow you to do this, which is odd. Check with your local store and see if they can order it to be shipped for you.

QuestionDoes this mic come with an arm mount so it’s easy to move and doesn’t have to be on my desk? If not, which one should I purchase to go with it?
Asked 5 years ago by MCoyneV.
- Answer It doesn't come with an arm mount, but there are very cheap ones on Amazon. The Mic does come with the correct mounting hardward for a arm mount though.

QuestionIs high demand and low supply a “good problem to have” or a forecasting failure leading to a massive missed opportunity? I think it’s the latter. I’m also starting to suspect it’s an intentional ploy to build “hype” or something dumb like that.
Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Massive missed opportunity. I've been waiting for a while for this mic to come back into stock on any approved seller, but it just doesn't. Will not accept price gouging either. I'll be going with a different mic shortly here. I reached out to elgato asking when they will be in stock, and they said they have no idea. I didn't expect a date, but at least give a sign that you are working on it....
