## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the Wave:1 have a mute button?**
A: Yes. The Wave 1 does have a mute button and it can be found on the dial of the microphone where you control headphone output - Simply press into the dial and it will mute the Wave 1. 

This is unlike the Wave 3 where the dial is the multi-function feature and the mute is instead on top of the microphone.

**Q: how far away from mouth can it be? I need it off my desk, hanging, above the camera for teaching. 30cm? 40cm? can?  will it block PC fan noise?**
A: 30/40 cm distance from the microphone shouldn't be an issue - Elgato's recommended gap is two fists (side-by-side) apart. From the Wave Link software, you can adjust the gain to help block out background noise. 

If you have any more questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out via support on Elgato's website and they'll happily assist you.

**Q: Can I plug in multiple Wave:1 mics into the same computer? Have you tried this?**
A: I am not positive but, I think it would be on the computer side, meaning you would need to run software that would be capable of running multiple sound inputs and outputs. Voicemeter to give an example. OBS might not need to have an additional software running though??

**Q: Is this good for recording guitar?**
A: This mic is efficient enough for recording guitar and playing it live during a stream. You may need another kind of mic if you were to do more high-end recording/audio, sound, capturing/editing.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for newbies to audio
*by S***E on August 16, 2022*

I'm not a newbie to audio things just the software that comes with this mic. Normally I just plug a mic it and go before this mic I was using a blue yeti for years then I wanted to try a newer mic. I think my blue yeti is four or 5 years old so it was time to get a newer on. I seen this on a YouTube review by senpai gaming. I don't normally buy things YouTubers review but after watching his review and then looking in to the mic more and other reviews from people that got the mic. I got the mic and works great I'm still messing with setting and what not. I don't talk that loud and it picks me up as long as I have the mic where it's supposed to be. As for the software that comes with it. It's not that hard to use or figure out if you get stumped there are alot of YouTube setup guides to make it easier. Worth the money and not you can add voice mods to the software to tweak your voice more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Use the software
*by D***L on July 11, 2023*

This microphone is amazing for overall use, video calls, gaming, zoom meetings whatever you want to use it for it. Does it really well and very reliably. The software is very easy to handle and is very useful when tweaking the sound and it makes it sound more like $150- $200 microphone it comes with its own pop filter, so the plosives aren't overdone when pronouncing words with (p) in them. It's very worth it for the price and I definitely recommend it for a first studio-quality microphone.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hardware is great. Software is outstanding!
*by B***E on March 4, 2022*

I previously was using a Blue Yeti mic which I loved. I purchased the wave:1 primarily to get the WaveLink software which greatly simplified my OBS -> Zoom configuration. I was able to get all my sound sources out of OBS and into Zoom without having to use virtual cables or voicemeeter. I can't say enough about WaveLink. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Wave:1 microphone itself performed as well and maybe even better than the Blue Yeti, so this was a win - win for me. I discovered several videos on YouTube made by AWALL that went over everything you could possibly want to know about getting everything up and running flawlessly. Elgato hit it out of the park with this one. As with everything Elgato produces, this mic does everything it claims to do. No brainer. If you buy this, you will not be sorry.One last thing, I decided on the Wave:1 over the Wave:3 because I really didn't need the extra features of the Wave:3. Virtually everything that the Wave:3 adds, can be done using the included WaveLink software.
