    I had tons of audio issues with microphones until I got the Wave 3. The level of customization with the wavelink software is second to none.

    I initially bought a yeti snowball mic but it lacked features and of course the sound quality was as good as this mic. This mic has TONS of features that allow you to be able to have a virtual sound station mix-amp.

    My first cardioid microphone. I must say, Elgato Wave 3 does provide good sound quality. So easy to setup, plug and play. However, to really get the benefits of this microphone, you should install Wave Link app (Windows or MacOS), right configuration per app is the key to maximizing this mic.

    This mic for the price point is at the top of its class in terms of features.. although it needs software and not truly plug n play. You come to find out the software is actually very very useful for streamers

    This mic is so much easier to use than my Blue Yeti. Sounds better and smoother on the mid with my voice, so I'm hoping to use it for recording/streaming as well as game chatting if I don't get to do that.

    Sound quality is exceptional in my humble opinion. Easy connection via USB. No need to use a filter, it has it built in. Heavy compared to other USB mics that I previously used. Highly recommended.
