Interface Elgato Wave XLR MK.2 10MAN9901

Elgato Wave XLR MK.2 Audio Interface

The Elgato Wave XLR MK.2 is a compact audio interface that connects any XLR microphone, dynamic or condenser, to a computer over USB-C. It delivers up to 80dB of clean gain, enough for quiet dynamic mics such as the Shure SM7B without an inline booster, plus 48V phantom power for condenser mics.

At its heart is the Wave FX Processor, developed with LEWITT Audio. It runs DSP effects on the device, prevents distortion with Clipguard 2.0 and adds VST effect support, all controlled from the free Wave Link software. A multifunction dial with an LED ring, a touch-sensitive mute button and a headphone output for zero-latency monitoring let you control your sound while you work.

Key features

• 80dB of gain and 48V - Up to 80dB of clean gain for quiet dynamic mics and 48V phantom power for condensers, so it works with any XLR microphone.
• Clipguard 2.0 - Multi-layer protection against clipping runs on the device itself, so sudden laughter or a raised voice stays clean.
• DSP and VST effects - The Wave FX Processor runs effects such as Voice Tune directly on the device and lets you add third-party VST effects that work in every app.
• Zero-latency monitoring - A 3.5 mm headphone output with Direct Monitoring lets you hear your voice with DSP effects and no delay, and High Power Mode delivers up to 170mW for high-impedance headphones.
• Quick hands-on control - A multifunction dial for gain, Voice Tune, headphone volume and mic/PC mix, a continuous LED ring and a capacitive mute button.
• Wave Link and Stream Deck - The free Wave Link app for Windows and macOS adds mixing, routing, Auto Gain and Voice Focus noise removal, and the device integrates with Stream Deck for one-touch control.
