1440p video? Or could I do 1440p gaming and everything at 1440p 144hz?

little rover
#

i'm not sure sorry

steel dew
#

Shoot, okay. I want to ping an admin and ask them but I don't want to bother them lol

#

Cuz yeah I want to run a single ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor at 144hz

little rover
#

yeah i'm sure they will answer you shortly

fiery plank
#

Not sure what is happening, but on the website it says Project Wave landing in 00:00:35:00 but in the email we got it says in 00:02:30:00

crisp cloak
#

Ultrawide won’t work at 144hz. Source is my having one

harsh bison
#

probably time szone issues @fiery plank

fiery plank
#

Oo yeah that could definitely be it. Just excited what there will released!

zealous mica
fiery plank
#

I can already see it

zealous mica
#

oh

#

same

#

so there are two versions

fiery plank
#

oo yeah indeed

#

but they are out of stock fo rme

rapid quail
#

really u can see them

#

?

zealous mica
#

yep

rapid quail
#

im in Switzerland and i can't see them atm

fiery plank
#

I've an audio section on top

rapid quail
#

imma go vpn

zealous mica
#

dont wanna spoil the announcement here

#

but if you look around in "various places", you'll find it πŸ™‚

rapid quail
#

it still says updating

#

imma see if in germany is running

crisp cloak
#

It’s a USB mic making a lot of promises.

zealous mica
#

ordered πŸ˜„

fiery plank
#

But is it in stock for you?

zealous mica
#

preorder

#

i hope the website updates soon. i need a better look at the accessories. might order them as well

fiery plank
#

I can see them as well

rapid quail
#

on the italian site there is only the shockmount for the mic πŸ˜‚

zealous mica
#

there is a pop filter and some rods as well

fiery plank
#

also ordered them but with shock and pop filter now looking for a good arm. Hoped they would include one as well

zealous mica
#

πŸŽ‰ its usb-c! thanks elgato πŸ™‚

crisp cloak
#

They have an arm thing already

zealous mica
#

it comes with a small desk stand

#

you can get the multi mount + flex if you want an arm

fiery plank
#

Multi mount is not that great for mics right?

#

Oo maybe that would be an option

#

But I can't see the old products only the new once haha

crisp cloak
#

desktop site is still down

zealous mica
#

there is another site that shows everything πŸ˜‰

fiery plank
#

Yeah indeed

rapid quail
#

i really want to see the adaptation of the mic with streamdeck

crisp cloak
#

So my concern atm is this. Do you need a USB C port on your motherboard for this to work or will USB 3.0 to C work just fine?

#

Also trying to visualize how this will work for a two PC setup. I imagine I'd need to have it go into my main PC and get that audio mix from the software to the second PC

zealous mica
#

pretty sure you wont need usb-c on your board

crisp cloak
#

Can't even buy in Canada, fail lol

zealous mica
#

same as stream deck xl

rapid quail
#

In Switzerland its possible imma receive it tomorrow garretno

zealous mica
#

the device is type-c. but the cable end is usb-a

#

here in germany it says sometime in june

little rover
#

it looks pretty sick, can we buy the wave yet?

rapid quail
#

look there

zealous mica
#

you spoiled it 😦

rapid quail
#

Is on Every platform now

crisp cloak
#

I also like how the shock mount is already out of stock before the website is even completely live lol

little rover
#

when will we be able to buy it in the UK?

fiery plank
#

In the netherlands the sticks are only on amazon and it states to have a release date of 1 july

crisp cloak
#

I don't see any info for Canada at all.

little rover
#

it's on amazon uk

crisp cloak
#

Guess I'll have some reviews to look at if I have to wait

little rover
#

release june 24th

fiery plank
#

you can already download the software

rapid quail
#

just downloaded

zealous mica
#

@crisp cloak it requires usb 2.0 on your mainboard. i checked

little rover
#

the pop filter and shock mount are all on amazon uk

crisp cloak
#

can you use the software with just anything?

little rover
#

is there an elgato mic arm too?

rapid quail
#

no

zealous mica
#

there is, its called elgato multi mount

rapid quail
#

yes for the mic only no

zealous mica
#
  • and flex
little rover
#

ah kk, so that works with the mic?

rapid quail
#

yes it's universal

zealous mica
#

why shouldn't it?

little rover
#

ok nice thanks, nah i was just wondering wether to get something like that or the blue compass

zealous mica
#

pretty sure its a 1/4" thread

#

but good luck finding it in stock πŸ˜„

little rover
#

yeah lol

#

what's the difference between the 2 wave's?

zealous mica
#

off topic: on some photos, they use an arm, which is not an elgato multi mount

little rover
#

yeah that's what i meant! lol

#

i wondered if it was an elgato mic arm

fiery plank
#

Yeah the multi mount is not very nice for a mic I think because it's quite static

#

even with the addition of the flex

rapid quail
#

exactly

little rover
#

yeah

zealous mica
#

yeah

#

i thought they just roll with it πŸ˜„

#

i have an old ikea lamp with a flexible arm

#

pretty sure i can print an adapter that works with my multi mount

little rover
#

lol nice, i have thhe blue yeti just on it's stand atm

zealous mica
#

oh the website is back on

little rover
#

do you think it's worth the upgrade to the wave from the yeti?

shadow sky
#

I got a product request related to the Wave 1

rapid quail
#

@zealous mica yes it was already 10 min ago

zealous mica
#

damn

#

why was there no announcement here? πŸ˜„

shadow sky
#

From the outset, the Wave looks super solid

#

My only complaint is the lack of XLR πŸ˜…

rapid quail
#

it's made to be easy to use and i think it's for tht reason that it has not an XLR port

zealous mica
#

does anyone know, if I can use the pop filter and the shock mount at the same time?

fiery plank
#

you can yeah

zealous mica
#

ah there is a picture

#

thx!

crisp cloak
#

The biggest bummer on my end is the lack of additional sources. I can't have a second PC plugged into it or a console

rapid quail
#

which one of the two version you would be more likely to buy?

shadow sky
#

I think, that's just a limitation of USB

fiery plank
#

I ordered the wave:3 to have a bit more control on the mic itself

little rover
#

yeah what's the main difference between the 2?

rapid quail
#

one does not have the built in mixer

#

the wave:1

zealous mica
shadow sky
#

What's the price diff?

little rover
#

not a lot

rapid quail
#

30 $

little rover
#

i would say the wave:3 tbh

shadow sky
#

I'm only πŸ‘€-ing the 3 because of higher sample rate

zealous mica
#

honestly i thought the mic would cost 400

fiery plank
#

yeah same

zealous mica
#

so i dont mind the 170 πŸ˜„

shadow sky
#

I don't need onboard controls, but then again, I'd prefer an XLR model

little rover
#

the price is so good

#

what even is sample rate? lol

zealous mica
#

not having XLR made it easier for me to justify the purchase πŸ˜„

#

as soon as i get the package, i can use it right away on my mac and pc

little rover
#

yeah

#

idk wether to get it or not lol

shadow sky
#

Can the wave be hooked to their multi arm?

zealous mica
#

if they had both, i wouldnt mind of course πŸ˜„

shadow sky
#

what even is sample rate? lol
It's the rate the mic samples audio

little rover
#

ah kk

shadow sky
#

Higher sample rate = higher fidelity

little rover
#

ok thanks

shadow sky
#

@zealous mica I'm talking about a specific model, just for XLR

#

Call it Pro or whatever

little rover
#

do you think it is worth upgrading to from the blue yeti?

rapid quail
#

i dunno which model do you have?

shadow sky
#

For looks alone, sure

#

Is the blue yeti a condensor?

fiery plank
#

@zealous mica any idea on when from amazon.de it is available. it just says out of stock not preorder or a date somewhere...

zealous mica
#

no idea tbh i ordered it from alternate

#

they say it might arrive tomorrow or the day after

shadow sky
#

Are you going to do a review?

zealous mica
#

i have nothing to compare to πŸ˜„

rapid quail
#

Yes on my channel but in Italian

Are you going to do a review?
@shadow sky

zealous mica
#

i dont even stream πŸ˜‚

little rover
#

yeah it is bastian

shadow sky
#

You can compare it to expectations?

#

So it'll be an overpriced VC mic Cosmo?

zealous mica
#

yeah basically πŸ˜„

#

when i join business video chats, i cringe when i hear the sound from my co-workers who use dell notebooks

#

and see their rubbish picture quality

little rover
#

can you use wave link with any mic?

cloud cedar
#

With mount

zealous mica
#

edit: posted "fakenews" (gone now)

crisp cloak
#

sounds pretty nice based off this guy

little rover
#

oh nice thanks, i'll watch it now πŸ˜„

late cloak
#

Damn I thought the software would work with other mics sihaMad Sad it doesn't

little rover
#

ah rip

late cloak
#

I just wanted to check how it works etc. Maybe then I could convince my friend who needs new mic to buy Wave hanzLul but he is dumb when it comes to softwares and I wanted to get to know it a little bit so I could help later

#

RIP

little rover
#

that video is super helpful

crisp cloak
#

Okay pretty sure after watching the video this mic is not good for people running a two PC setup.

zealous mica
#

a bit sad when he said "boxy sound"

crisp cloak
#

compromises, this thing is all about compromises. Meant for people that want plug and play.

zealous mica
#

yeah sure, i mean i paid less than 200 bucks πŸ˜„

little rover
#

i still don't know wether to get it or not lol it seems good but would love a comparison to the blue yeti

zealous mica
#

i thought of getting the shure SM7B, but i don't any more cables and devices on my desk ... πŸ˜„

crisp cloak
#

thinking I'll just keep my GO XLR order active. Should get it next month

little rover
#

the shure sm7b isn't cheap either lol

zealous mica
#

yeah not at all, more than twice as much

#

and thats just the mic

little rover
#

yeah

crisp cloak
#

I really don't like that he didn't use his other mics to compare

little rover
#

yeah

little rover
#

the site should be up?

crisp cloak
#

It's def meant for beginners when it comes to audio or people that don't particularly care so much about how they sound so long as it works

zealous mica
#

no idea what he's saying. but here's a comparison with some random "mics"

crisp cloak
#

why is he comparing the wave 3 to obviously bad choices?

zealous mica
#

maybe thats all he got πŸ˜„

crisp cloak
#

It needs to be compared to AT2020 or better

little rover
#

at2020, yeti and shure sm7b

zealous mica
#

you can just say "compare to a dedicated microphone"

crisp cloak
#

I just wish they would have been considering multiple PC setups

zealous mica
#

what do you mean?

#

like what would be different?

#

@misty cypress in which country?

crisp cloak
#

I game on one PC while the other does the heavy lifting for the stream. The Wave doesn't seem suited towards that setup

zealous mica
#

the .at version doesnt have any elgato products for some reason

#

@crisp cloak hmm but why don't you connect the mic to the streaming pc?

crisp cloak
#

With my current setup I am using the AT2020 with both the gaming PC and the streaming PC at the same time

#

If I go with the Wave I have two choices.

  1. Hook it up to my gaming rig and send the audio over to the streaming PC via audio in
  2. Use it on my streaming PC but then have to use two mics, one for the stream and another for the gaming PC

#

Corsair.com has some things in stock that show up as out of stock on elgato’s site

zealous mica
#

on alternate they say it will be delivered within the next two days

#

corsair: no idea πŸ˜„

#

to austria?

#

yeah i would order from somewhere else πŸ™‚

#

alternate

#

1h 47 min ago

crisp cloak
#

Yeah I'm just going to go with the GO XLR for future proofing reasons. Much more control over what you sound like and 2x inputs for a console and whatever else

#

It's about what I expected. A decent quality mic for people that want a plug and play device to get up and running. Def not meant for more complicated setups, and I'd argue for the cost of the wave 3 you'd be better off with a GO XLR + affordable XLR mic

#

Yeah I meant the mini

#

you don't need all the extra crap

#

That is a concern I share. I've been trying to wrap my mind around how I would get console audio into the mixer and so far the only answer I have is maybe having the console audio go into a sound card audio in / optical in so the software can see it

primal moss
#

@crisp cloak FYI there’s some latency in your own mic on headphones with the go xlr. Some people are fine, some people it’s really distracting .

crisp cloak
#

I don't monitor my own mic anyways

#

According to that one review I watched you have no control over the EQ of the mic as well, that bothers me.

primal moss
#

Neat. Currently happy with the Roland octa capture though

#

Not as nice if you want to change mix levels often though

crisp cloak
#

I just want full control over the mic sound, multiple audio in, and the ability to send that all to a second PC. I'm not going to risk the money they want for the wave 3 for all those things not to work when the cost of a GO XLR mini is near the same

#

That is 239 USD right?

#

Not sure if it is showing me CAD or not, it likely isn't

zealous mica
#

@misty cypress no idea how fast alternate's email support is. but you can call them up

crisp cloak
#

Okay so I paid $435 CAD after taxes for my GOXLR mini that is on backorder. Still rather pay that over $394 CAD for an okay quality mic + software that is limited.

heh i dont have the money to purchase such a device

#

pls let us use another mic with wave link pepepls

crisp cloak
#

If not another mic at least the other features

does elgato have a screen recorder of its own for laptops/desktops

ok..now we have an elgqato microphone...but....WHERES THE ELGATO 4K WEBCAM! XD

analog meteor
#

installing the wave link software to see if i can use my at2020 with it kekw

#

you cannot

#

Wave Link would be sick for radio use >.<

#

So the wave is just a crap ton of sound cards and a mic?

#

i see

waxen hedge
#

Good morning

analog meteor
#

also they need to add software compression options/vst chaining

#

so you can pass it through vsts

#

if it is one device output they need to add VST in wave link software

#

to individual channels

harsh bison
#

who would have thought that there are two waves K_KappaLUL

past holly
#

They have individual audio channels for the wave

#

So you can have one be mic, game, music, browser, system and so on

summer girder
#

So that new Mic.

Yes

Yes

And

YESSSSSS

still sorrel
#

Dang

#

The new mic for Elgato sold out already. 😦

#

oh where?

manic socket
#

Nah stores down

crisp cloak
#

lol first thing I hear

"feels cheap"

manic socket
#

And it makes a liar out of me and comes right back up

past holly
#

Store works for me in the US. make sure adblock is off

summer girder
#

Yeah I could still buy it on Elgato or Amazon

#

If you go onto the Elgato website, click buy now and scroll down it says (our partners) or something and has an Amazon link

#

Wasn't for me. Said (pre order and add to basket)

#

Are you UK or US?

#

Ah that may be why it's out then for your local Amazon

crisp cloak
#

The end of the video sounds like he just doesn't want to upset Elgato lol

the video is good ty

icy pike
#

Oh my that mic is incredibly good

#

project wave looks so good

little rover
crisp cloak
#

killed the GO XLR? lol

#

clickbait title

#

It just feels like all these early reviews are people that were sent the mic by Elgato and want to stay in their good graces

little rover
#

yeah,i would assume they have all been sent them

What's up everyone.

Hi

#

I am a youtuber with 170k subs, who can help me

knotty sun
#

Sorry mate.

#

Can't help.

little rover
#

help with what? lol

summer girder
#

I'm assuming they was a review mic lol

frail moth
#

Does the wave link and wave 3 work with duel PC? Also does obs have a plug-in for wave link or does it have to be separate

crisp cloak
#

@frail moth It's not worth getting for a duel PC setup

stiff eagle
#

@frail moth I'm sure you can, with using the Wave Link and their channels in separating audio.
Of course, it needs some tinkering and working around, but having it set in the end is satisfying CryGoku
(edit) Keep an eye out for Alpha Gaming's tutorial for dual pc setup with Wave Microphones πŸ‘€
As for the OBS/Wave Link, You can add the Wave Link Stream Mix within OBS's Mix/Auxiliary device. Its all here on this page -> https://help.elgato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360044559532-Wave-Link-Add-Stream-Mix-to-OBS-Studio

crisp cloak
#

Just watch the reviews, the majority of them mention the Wave isn't ideal for duel PC setups.

static copper
#

Blur yeti killer is prob a more appropriate name tbh

#

Anyone running a dual PC set up shouldn't be using a usb mic imo

#

Lol

#

Looks like a solid mic

little rover
#

yeah the wave links looks great, especially with the stream deck

static copper
#

^^^^^

topaz shuttle
#

I've gotta be honest. No offence but in my opinion, the software is better than the mic. In audio comparisons i think it sounds a bit average but the software it makes is brilliant. If you could somehow make the software purely pc based and usable without the mic, that would make it a trillion times better

#

I'd be willing to buy the software alone

crisp cloak
#

The software really would be useful just on its own more so than a mid tier quality USB mic

little rover
#

i agree, i would buy just the software

topaz shuttle
#

I use the blue yeti and I've managed to make it sound better than some xlr mics ive seen, so sacrificing quite a bit of quality for a software

crisp cloak
#

I know the reviews are saying the price is a strong point... but up here in Canada it really isn't

little rover
#

i have the blue yeti atm too dr.clown, idk wether it's worth me upgrading

topaz shuttle
#

honestly all that it comes down to for me is that ive already spent quite a bit of money for a setup, and i honestly dont think its smart for me to spend so much money to get a worse mic that I'd probably just keep plugged into the side and muted for the software for my normal mic. I'd be paying $130 for an app

little rover
#

fair enough

iron gazelle
#

Hey - Quick note about dual PC. YEs, Wave can be used in a dual-PC configuration, and there are multiple ways of going about it. Routing the mic to both PCs at the same time or running Wave Link on the gaming PC and send the final mix to the streaming PC or running Wave link on the streaming PC. Theres lots of options here.

To the point "If you use a dual-PC setup you shouldnt use a USB mic" I ask why not? Wave has incredible sound quality. Why should someone spend $200+ for an interface and another $200+ for a mic when all of this can be achieved for less than $200. There's a misconception that USB = bad and with Wave one of our goals is to educate that USB does not immediately mean a mic is bad. With Wave, we've shown exactly that.

I run a dual-PC streaming setup and use Wave:3 for it. πŸ™‚

static copper
#

I just meant in terms of the upfront cost for an entire 2nd pc that most people would prob use am xlr mic. (I think the wave is amazing tho not saying its bad). The whole need to dual pc set up nowadays is kinda mute now imo with rtx nividia gpu and nvenc or beefy cpu like rysen 3700 3800 and 3900x

neon hatch

dual pc as a mostly console gamer & sometimes PC gamer...

steel dew
#

@iron gazelle Hey, just wondering - can any of your docking stations run a curved ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor @ 144hz 1440p? Thanks!

crisp cloak
#

@iron gazelle The Wave 3 + pop filter + shock mount is $400 - $450 Canadian.

GO XLR mini + AT2020 (Likely one of the best budget options for an XLR mic) + cheap boom arm w/ shock mount will be in the $500 - $600 range.

That extra $200 gets you...

A better mic
More control over the sound of said mic
Physical inputs for a console or whatever else
All the hard lifting is done by the GO XLR

There really is no value proposition for the Wave up here in Canada.

iron gazelle
#

@crisp cloak Thats totally fair. I feel for you guys in Canada and the pricing. And with the setup you mentioned, those plus's for 'only' $200 is probably worth it πŸ™‚

leaden cliff
crisp cloak
#

Know how much the keylight air is? $200 CAD The big one? $350 CAD. The arm stand thing? $80. Prices up here are wack for Elgato things.

leaden cliff
#

that wave link software is sick but it looks like from the videos it has a gate to make sure the mics you plugin are wave mics which sucks

crisp cloak
#

Yeah I downloaded it earlier just to see what would happen. It just asks you to plug in the wave

leaden cliff
#

Yeah

#

And honestly, that's a bummer

#

so I might try to figure out how to make a hack so you can use it on all mics

#

lol

#

Or I might suggest it too

neon hatch
#

@crisp cloak how close are you to the border? could you order it from a US shipping based shop and pick it up from a friend? πŸ˜›

iron gazelle
#

Why not use Voicemeeter?

leaden cliff
#

With it being stuck to wave it severely limits the potential. Streamers and creators alike have always wanted different mixes for streams that they ca instantly change, but with it requiring a Wave mic, it's pretty weird. A good idea might be charge for the software if you don't have Wave haha.

#

Voicemeeter doesn't unfortunately work my system

crisp cloak
#

@iron gazelle Can you maybe suggest your amazon.ca prices reflect that of the amazon.com? 50 USD for the multimount does not = 80 CAD

neon hatch
#

Also no VoiceMeeter on Mac.

leaden cliff
#

It attempts to capture everything and doesn't also allow for that sick switch on the fly thing

#

mhm

#

I do use Mac sometimes too

#

also iirc no stream deck support for voicemeeter

#

so I can't use my deck

neon hatch
#

there is with a plugin

leaden cliff
#

Oh really?

neon hatch
#

check BarRaider's server

leaden cliff
#

Cool

#

Still, I don't want to waste my expensive Rode mic lel

iron gazelle
#

I see. Just know we can't officially condone any sort of "hacking". There are technical reasons that Wave Link only works when a Wave Mic is connected. It actually has nothing to do with "DRM" or anything else. Its purely technical.

leaden cliff
#

Yeah, understandable

neon hatch
#

cough I imagine it could be like the RTX Voice thing

leaden cliff
#

At least I think if the software has deep integration in that way, instead it can be used for mixing programs and 3rd party mics are on the side and manually added into other softwares where Wave Link only mixes program audio

neon hatch
#

where it wasn't meant to be used by non-RTX cards, but it was easy enough for programmers to figure out that it infact could work on GPUs as early as the GTX-750

#

Me! πŸ˜›

#

its actually a very comfortable and casual stream!

lavish eagle
#

First time I've visited a stream and the more I hear the clear audio, the more and more I'm just gonna buy about 4 Wave 3s πŸ˜‚

#

I'll be streaming from SLOBS with an Elgato HD60S and using it connected to my computer

#

Chat Link, I'm gonna get a separate Corsair headset

I've got a basic set up at the moment, but need to upgrade soon

#

What do you mean?

mental heron
#

Glad to hear you all are enjoying the stream!

mint snow
#

i dont think its supposed to take over a console stream/ usb interface, it deffinitly will be better withg pc streaming.

lavish eagle
#

I meant 1 headset for speaking to my friends/ listening to game chat + the Wave 3 for speaking to stream

#

I don't tend to listen to my own audio, I let my chat tell me if something is wrong, or if I suspect something is wrong, I use my phone to listen to my stream and keep me updated

#

I know that's a bit amateur but I'm trying to improve as I go πŸ˜‚

#

I have alerts and stuff but I have my monitor directly infront of me, and I'm constantly looking at it so I see if there is an alert without hearing it

#

As my TV is on the wall above my monitor, if that makes sense

Can the wave mic be used with a headphone amp? Does it introduce too much latency?

#

Anyone know if you can mute the Wave 1 via the mic itself?

tight iris
#

Yes the dial clicks in to mute

late cloak
#

Was the winner of twitch stream ga announced? my internet diediedied sihaMad

ornate ridge
#

thanks @tight iris

past holly
#

yeah it was announced on stream

tight iris
#

Anybody know if it's possible to use an amp along with the wave mic?

hollow aurora
#

No, only for the middle function to monitor your voice with no lag. You can hear everything via the software

#

I think I've only plugged in my headset once or twice just to see what it did. Otherwise I only use the software

tight iris
#

What are your headphones connected to?

late cloak
#

so I bet it wasn't me then @past holly helveticat_lol gratz to the winner tho helveticat_lol

haughty zealot
#

If you're looking to monitor your voice, there is more latency if you go through Wave Link's output to lets say speakers or a wireless headset, there will be more latency than if you were to use the 3.5mm headphone port on the Wave Mic. @stable inlet

late cloak
#

wait, is Wave good reason to create new channel named - mic-chat or wave-chat? πŸ€”

#

so people can talk about different setups with wave without it being lost in the general channel? πŸ€”

blissful forge
#

there is a premade one called "Voice Chat" that you can use. you can also rename the channels.

#

yes

haughty zealot
#

Yes, so:

Headphone port on headphone - no latency
Wireless headset or some other device not connected to the wave 3's headphone port - latency

tight iris
#

Alright, I wanted to use my magni but still be able to use this mic and sofware

#

Is the latency bad?

haughty zealot
#

So if you're monitoring your voice I would plug into the headphone jack of the mic

#

OK - so basically

#

Mic on headphone jack - no latency
PC audio mix from headphone jack - ultra low latency
Mic/PC audio mix from other devices - more latency

#

Now, when I say this - I'm able to play PC games etc. from Wave Link to my headset etc no problem

#

But, when measured, the headphone jack has less latency on the PC audio too

#

Better than any virtual software I believe

#

Like if you were to use voicemeeter

#

Our PC virtual mix listening has less latency when you use the headphone monitor port

#

than the voicemeeter

#

so it's REALLY good

#

BUT - if you really want to use wireless headphones (like I like to do when I stream and play games) - while there is MORE latency than the ultra low latency of the headphone port, that doesn't mean it's unplayable

#

however, when it comes to monitoring your own mic, I personally believe that any latency in your monitoring there really throws you off

#

I don't monitor my voice so that doesn't affect me. But if I were I would definitely use the headphone monitor port so I could do it with zero latency

#

Does this all make sense?

tight iris
#

Ya

#

My headphones won't get enough sound without an amp so I have no choice

agile shuttle
#

So here is a question

#

How does the Wave:3 stack up against the AT2035?

blissful forge
#

in obs, we recommend only having Wave Stream as your audio source. That way, Wave Link is handling all of your stream's audio.

agile shuttle
#

I am tempted to sell my 2035 for the Wave:3

#

Will do a trade with Elgato directly if that works too xD

haughty zealot
#

I think if you listen to a lot of the reviews that are available online you can see how the Wave stacks up with other mics in its price range/target

#

I don't know if the AT2035 on there - but realistically with Wave it's about the complete package

#

It's not just a mic - it's the mic and virtual mixer

tight iris
#

Headphones>amp>software I'll have latency from system sounds but nothing unusable right?

#

Wave 1 makes more sense

#

Magni heresy

#

I wanted this mic because it'll save me some money, but I don't want a bunch of latency when using an external amp

#

A solution to my problem and I'm sold on this mic, it really is looking great

woven tusk
#

There really shouldn't be any latency on the amp. Assuming you mean just output from Wave microphone into amp into headphones.

tight iris
#

Ya, meaning system sounds, I'd still like to control sounds with the software but connect via amp rather than the back of the wave mic

#

Sorry I didn't understand that, do you mean latency not present when: system(also sofware)>amp>headphones?

foggy spade
#

@everyone can anyone help me setup my dual pc out of the kindness of their heart? I have it all working except for audio I downloaded voicemeeter and elgato sound but there is a delay of audio on my end when in game. Thanks!

Thanks for that great presentation! Yet another thing for the wishlist lol

Can someone please tell me when the Elgato store is going to be back up, I have wanted to purchase the new Wave 3, but the site store has been down for quite awhile now???

#

@foggy spade you don't need to post I. Multiple channels. #cth-history is fine if some one is there. Also please no everyone tags.

foggy spade
#

yes i do because i've had this problem posted it in here before and got a half ass response to a presumably simple problem either one setting or a faulty piece of equipment which seems to be a reocurring problem for elgato capture cards @civic falcon

#

do you mind spending 5 minutes for $5 and help me out in a call with screen share please

#

i beg

civic falcon
#

Posting the same thing in multiple channels is considered spam. #cth-history is a community driven area and not monitored by support staff. If no one is able to help you in there you should contact elgato support at http://e.lga.to/help

You can absolutely talk about elgato products. With regards to rumoured products I'll double check.

I'm tempted to get the wave 1... I probably don't need it but woweee software (and sound ofc) is excellent as always

With a $30 price difference (If you're in the states anyways) getting the Wave 1 makes no sense

yeah

carmine heath
#

obviously a marketing strategy

#

=)

cloud plank
#

Does anyone know anything about the new wave link software? Like does it actually output sound is separate channels for VODs?

static copper
#

Wave 1 is actually for the most part identical to wave 3. Unless you want the extra dial and special mute tap button wave 1 is completely fine. @indigo moth

#

48khz is cap for obs anyways. So really comes down to you want extra functionality with the buttons tbh

opal ether
#

I just got Wave 1, am looking for arm suggestions

agile shuttle

So when the Wave 3 is back in stock (which I'd love to know), can I get a USB-C to USB-C cable for it and use that?

I have my spare VRLink cable port I don't use πŸ˜›

static copper
#

Rode ps1 is a great boom arm

pliant pine
#

Will we ever know what happened to wave 2?

indigo moth
#

@static copper Yeah that's kind of the conclusion I came too tbh, with the money you save going with wave 1 you could add on the pop filter/shock mount too

#

@pliant pine FAX

#

Maybe wave 2 will be some weird special drop...dynamic mic? thonk

glad moon
#

Well

#

I do think there will be a 3rd mic/ interface

hot tinsel
#

is the button on the front of the 4k 60 s+ a button or touch control?

tight iris
#

Wave 1 is the way to go, unless you care for extra physical button functionality it doesn't make much sense to get the 3

glad moon
#

Or wait

#

For the inevitable 3rd mic / interface

tight iris
#

I'll be saving money compared to my original budget for an xlr setup I'll be able to add in a streamdeck

glad moon
#

So idk how much I’m allowed to talk about in this discord cuz it is elgatos discord

#

But there are some files in the wave link app that reference more devices

#

And a really smart programming friend of mine is helping to take a look at some of them, he said there’s some interesting things on there

tight iris
#

I was a little wary at first, but I think I'm going all in and purchasing the wave 1

glad moon
#

Wave 1 is a good choice

#

It’s just extra money for cosmetics and accessibility functions

#

You can still do everything on the 1

#

And it’s the same internals except for 96k

crisp cloak
#

As I said yesterday my biggest complaint is the price up here in Canada. By the time you get a Wave 3 + pop filter + shock mount you are in the $400 - $450 range. For another $100 - $200 CAD you can have a GO XLR mini + XLR mic + cheap boom arm which leaves you upgrade paths down the road where as the Wave 3 cannot be improved on in the future.

The product just loses out on that value argument when you get so much more out of a GO XLR + XLR mic for adding 25 - 50% more to your budget towards an audio solution.

pliant dew
#

Wait what is the price of the wave:3 and accessories?

crisp cloak
#

@pliant dew If I am remembering correctly $280+ for the wave 3 and $50 for each of the two accessories you would pretty much be required to have because nothing else will fit the shape of the mic.

pliant dew
#

alright, cool

tight iris
#

In the US it makes more sense because $130/$180 for the wave then $30 for filter and $40 for mount which is around $200-$250

#

A goxlr mini alone is 250

crisp cloak
#

If that was the case up here it may have been a consideration if I wasn't running a duel PC setup and pretty much require multiple inputs because I play both PC and console

empty crane
#

You don't really need the filter, it has a filter built into the mic

#

Does anyone know how well the wave link software works? IE: does it actually separate out audio into separate channels for VODS, or is it just a muxer?

vale cosmos
#

So are the Wave mics officially released and shipping or is it a future release? Like on Amazon it says it'll be released June 25

#

But on the ElGato site I didn't see anything about a date

neon hatch
#

I actually do wonder if the separate tracks can be done via the Game Capture or 4K Capture Utility software as well. It's a pretty neat figure currently where you can separate the mic recording from the video.

cloud plank
#

yea, it's the most interesting feature in my opinion

#

that's why I wanted to see if the software does the channel stuff on it's own without you needing to tell another capture software like OBS to capture each of them

#

IE: when I record sound with microsoft gamebar

#

do I get 6 channels? or do I get one

#

something tells me I get 1

fleet heart
#

Generally it's up to whatever is recording your audio to determine how many tracks you can record at one time.

#

Or how many devices you can record at one time.

#

Gamebar, to my knowledge, won't separate out your audio sources into different tracks.

cloud plank
#

thanks

neon hatch
#

I mean, essentially, Wave Link does the job of VoiceMeeter Potato with the virtual mixing of several apps/programs/sources (well, 2 mics I hear, dunno if line-in can be used or not), and apparently able to send several "outputs" (possibly enough for using a full 6 channels of OBS).

#

All in all, Elgato continues to do what they do best, make products that make streaming easy.

#

I could theoretically get the same function now with VoiceMeeter Potato, my XLR mic & interface, and a bunch of the Virtual Audio Cables, then have the 2 desktop channels and 4 "mic" channels all within OBS (and I do this now), but it took awhile to get that all setup and working.

#

While it seems with Wave3 and Wave Link, it makes it pretty easy to setup and use.

fleet heart
#

I don't have hands on experience, but I believe the advantage with Wave Link would probably be lower latency monitoring of your inputs with less artifacts than other software.

crisp cloak
#

That’s kinda the point. Easy to use at the expense of options, control and an upgrade path to better equipment while still using the Wave

manic moat
#

i want to record the wii

#

how

#

how do i do

#

hello

fleet heart
#

There's a huge, long answer to that and it all boils down to "it depends." If you plan to use an Elgato product, you will need a device that can convert the analog signal into a digital one that is outputted via HDMI. As for which converter you can use, there are so many options at various price points with various features that perform at various levels and you'll have to do research on it yourself to find the best solution for you.

That system would fall below the requirements of our devices. So we can't promise it our capture cards would behave as expected.

@sturdy cape Just to answer about DS recording, there isn't an active way to do it currently. There were 3DS capture kits that were hard modded into your system, but the manufacturer is out of business and such modifications are in a legal grey area in Japan. The only way to do DS or 3DS streaming/recording is through emulation which is also in a legal grey area.

sturdy cape
#

yikes

fleet heart
#

And the reason why I bring up the modification being legally grey in Japan is because the company that sold the mods were in Japan.

woven tusk
#

I remember one of the first questions I had on my first day working Twitter was about how to capture a 3DS lol. Had bad news for them.

And those '3DS capture cards' generally output to USB, not HDMI ironically.

fleet heart
#

Yeah, and they're pretty imperfect.

#

I guess you could try to get the capture devices that Nintendo sold/gave to press outlets, but "difficult" doesn't even begin to describe the process of obtaining one.

woven tusk
#

Mission Impossible 7 perhaps

regal zodiac
#

It's here....

iron gazelle
#

@glad moon On mac its actually easier than on Windows. On mac, you choose the application you want to capture in Wave Link and Wave Link grabs it automatically. None of the setup that Windows requires is needed. Other than that the functionality is identical

fleet heart
#

I guess one option to get AV out on an original Nintendo DS is to get the Intelligent Systems Nitro Emulator (dev kit) for anywhere between $800-$1600. As for 3DS, it's pretty much a complete dead end.

#

But apparently retail games don't work on the dev kit without modding it. Really it's just a brick wall.

glad moon
#

yes but @iron gazelle

#

in terms of sending that out to OBS

#

as multiple tracks

#

does it work the same way?

iron gazelle
#

Correct, yes

glad moon
#

sweet

#

also

#

i'm just curious

iron gazelle
#

You mean recording multiple audio tracks seperately?

glad moon
#

did you guys collab with rogue amoeba for the mac build?

iron gazelle
#

That I would need to verify

glad moon
#

yeah thats what I mean

iron gazelle
#

Ah im not sure exactly if the implementation is the same, I retract my statement. ill check for you though

glad moon
#

ok

iron gazelle
#

Not right now as I dont have time. Ill have Crest remind me if I forget

glad moon
#

but my question about rogue amoeba, i've just been wondering if buying loopback on its own would be better on mac vs Wave Link

#

if its using the same tech does it have the same latency?

iron gazelle
#

We use that technology, so with Wave you get the loopback functionality + the extra wave link features + an excellent microphone

glad moon
#

it seems like from my research the wave link offers easy submixing while loopback doesn't have a super intuitive way to do that

#

ok, i think ill go with the wave link then, if you could just get back to me about sending multiple outputs to OBS for multi track recording that'd be great πŸ™‚

#

whenever u get the chance

iron gazelle
#

yeppp

neon hatch
#

@iron gazelle if you're still here, any idea if you guys will be bringing the different audio track recording to the .aaf files of 4KCU?

iron gazelle
#

What do you mean? 4KCU always records in multi track

neon hatch
#

But it just includes the mic/voice commentary track and the HDMI track currently. With Wave Link and what you said about OBS and multi-track recording, would it also include all of the other source tracks from Wave Link?

iron gazelle
#

Oh I see. That's on our list of planned features. The idea would be that there's a recording button in Wave Link that if you click it will record all the inputs to a seperate audio file. Something like that. Super easy to understand, but not that easy for us to implement πŸ™‚

so when i was chatting w/ someone.. the mic auto adjusted as if it was possessed

#

but i do like that touch capactive mute on the top.. ONLY thing i dislike is he button in the front to toggle the 3 modes. its a hard push.. and u can knock it over. u gotta support it in the back to push the button..

#

unless u lock it in really tight. its possible

south marsh
#

ahhh yeah i use the mute button i made on my stream deck

#

wonder if those 3 modes can be programmed into the deck

@coarse marsh well I have just installed the HD60 PRO version. Works good, streams good. I have some extra FPS in STREAMING but UNFORTUNATELY dont know how to set up the device that only GAME WINDOW is streammed. It streams all my monitor content ... 😦

Yo I am amped for the new elgato wave 3. Legit elgato becoming the one stop shop for legit every streamer need.

#

now all they need

#

is a camera

#

they should do the same thing they did with lewitt

#

partner with a camera company

#

develop a low cost camera with basically 2 functions

#

good depth of field

#

and a decent detail quality

#

just enough to blow webcams out of the water

#

then make it have a camlink basically built in

#

and be able to output to multiple apps at once. omg the dream

if you maybe wanna get something cheaper that definitely isn't as high quality or reliable until the Cam Link's come back

remote ermine

Thanks @glad moon! Personally speaking, high quality is something I've always been big on and I'm willing to spend on it. Just didn't want to jump the gun and by a Cam Link for $230 now and then see it come back in stock in like 3 weeks lol

If it's an HD60 pro purchased new in the last 2 years it should work fine right out of the box. If it's much older it may require a firmware change from our team. @hard rivet

I've seen people use vertical risers for the HD60 Pro

An HD60 Pro is only supported on Windows. Doesn't matter if the hardware is Mac or not.

So youd want to dual boot it in that case.

I used Restream to simulcast to YouTube/Twitch/Mixer, I guess Mixer is dead now so I'll just go back to the other two.

@hearty pivot From what I have read, the Elgato HD60 S is the best one to have for streaming and recording. Unlike the Elgato HD60, you do not have to get your audio in sink.

I have my eyes on a competitor's product (that kinda competes with the CamLink but doesn't at the same time)

But my best friend will never need more than a CamLink. So it works out nicely that when I upgrade, she gets my CamLink
