    The Elgato Wave:3 is a great mic. Sound is clear and with the shock mount it's perfect for recording. I use it for conference calls and podcasts- will it work for professional studios? You'll probably need something a little different. Value is great and the controls are great. Would I buy again? Yes.

    I really wanted to like this microphone as the audio is very good, however the software is really buggy. The problem is that it sometimes won't load, requiring restarting the app or disconnecting/reconnect the microphone. This happened to me almost every single time. I would wait for the drivers/firmware to mature a bit.
