    This mic is LITERALLY what I’ve been looking for as a beginner streamer. The way that ONE mic stems to/from EVERY audio is crazy good.

    Purchased this with the Elgato webcam for meetings. Excellent sound, especially compared to diet I was using previously. Mute button and red light lets you know when it's muted to help avoid the "we can't hear you".

    This mic is very good for people who want to record VOs or just stream or even hang out with people on discord. Genuinely impressed by the quality and level of customization for the price, and it being USB, not XLR.

    Great mic. Well-weighted. Easy to use. User-friendly. Being able to set up multiple sources (like a mini go xlr) is a great option.... spending under $200 instead of having to buy equipment that could run you easily around $800, is perfect for those on a tight budget. Easy to mute/unmute. Simple to monitor your audio mix.

    I can't think of 1 reason not to get this mic, unless good quality and the ability to mix your audio sources isn't your thing or if you enjoy missing notifications because other volumes are too loud in your headset because stream hears them too quietly. Although the software is missing some key features such as the ability to set any sort of gating it's great with everything else. They have plans to include gating in future updates. For the time being you can mute your mic source in the software and set the mic in OBS like normal.

    Not what I thought it would be in terms of size and usage. Although quality is good, it was a lot bigger and heavier than expected.

    Hands down the best mic for streamers and gamers. I was using the Blue Snowball which was great, but clipped a lot during exciting moments while gaming. The Wave 3 paired with the wavelink software eliminates all clipping and Kees you sounding crisp and clear. I highly recommend this mic to any avid live streamers/gamers.

    When the checkout kid, a random stranger in the store, and your lady at home - whom you didn't think knew anything about microphones tell you it's a sweet mic... it must be a sweet mic. Turns out it is. Great sound quality and construction. Fairly priced although not cheap.

    Pretty awesome mic for a USB plug in. I think the best part about the Mic is the software. Being able to control audio across my PC is amazing, it avoids the need to get an XLR

    A great microphone. I use it as a mobile recording device for instructional videos with voiceovers. Being as I am not in a studio often when I record these, I don't have much control over unwanted sounds, but this mic does a GREAT job at not picking up unwanted noise. My voice comes across clearly!

    Honestly, such a great product for the money. I get complicated constantly about the quality of my microphone. I suggest you get an arm and pop filter if you want a really great experience with this product. The software is PHENOMENAL and should be talked about way more. It gets better with time and is a great investment
