    This isn’t a review for the product but for BestBuy. This was purchased 9 days before Christmas and the please review your new item email was sent out on Christmas Eve. Well they are all still under my tree wrapped up with my name on them. My wife is going to be really upset that you ruined my Christmas surprise the day before Christmas with this email.

      Hi Jason,

      The review should be for the product itself, did you have any issues using the microphone? If you had any issues or questions, please feel free to reach out to our support team: support.corsair.com

    Probably the best usb mic you could buy for wave link alone. Buy the wave 1 unless you really like the touch to mute.

    Great External Mic and Software

    I’m giving this 3 stars because the program sometimes crashes. When this happens I need to reopen it and it is fine. That is really my only complaint. I really like being able to adjust volumes separately through the software. This seems to be geared towards streaming but works well for the average user looking for a external mic.

    Good hardware. Bad Software.

    While the hardware side of this is fantastic but the software is absolutely confusing. If using this with something like OBS, the sources get all messed up. Wave:3 is something that I wouldn't recommend due to the fact that you don't have the option to use it without also using the Elgato software.

      Hi,

      Elgato's Wave Link software is not required to use the Wave:3, but recommended in order to fully utilize its features and customization. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you require assistance or have any questions, we'd be more than happy to help out: support.elgato.com

    But nothing special. I tried this vs my audiotechnica xlr mic and honestly didnt see anything special about having this compared to the xlr. It's good but nothing that makes it a must have. Build quality was subpar for its price.

      Hi Sasquatch33,

      Sorry to hear, are you able to connect directly to a USB port on your system? This would also provide you with the best performance for the Wave 3 microphone. If you have further issues, please reach out to our support team so we can work with you directly: support.elgato.com
