Corsair Elgato Wave XLR USB-C Audio Interface 10MAG9901
The black Wave XLR from Elgato is a compact USB Type-C audio interface with a single XLR input and mic preamp designed for recording, podcasting, and streaming to Mac and Windows computers at a 24-bit resolution with a choice of 48 or 96 kHz sampling rates. The elegant space-saving design uses a single multifunction knob to control the microphone gain, phantom-power switch, headphone volume, and the monitor blend between the mic input and playback from your computer.
The ultralow-noise preamp provides up to 75 dB of clean gain for your mic signal, and a capacitive mute switch is conveniently placed on the top/rear of the inferface. A long press on the control knob activates 48V phantom power for condenser microphones. The 3.5mm headphone jack for monitoring is located on the rear of the unit, beside the USB port and XLR input. Multiple faceplate options are available separately in a variety of color choices to add a little visual flair to the interface.
Plenty of Power
Give your mic the boost it needs without an external preamp. Up to 75 dB of ultralow-noise gain makes notoriously insensitive dynamic mics sound loud and clear, while 48 volts of phantom power bring condenser mics to life.
Get Amped without Clipping
You don't need to watch levels while live, nor attempt to salvage distorted audio in post production. When input levels peak, proprietary Clipguard technology instantly reroutes sound through a second signal path at a lower volume, the result is clean audio output, no matter how loud you scream.
Switchable Low-Cut Filters
Dual selectable filters at 80 and 120 Hz let you remove low frequencies, especially helpful if your recording up close to the mic.
Wave Link Software for Multichannel Control
Intuitive software custom built for content creation, Wave Link gives you ultimate control of your Twitch stream, YouTube video, or podcast audio. Independent input channels let you blend sources such as game audio, voice chat, music, alerts, samples, and more in real time. Create two completely independent output mixes—one for you, one for your audience—and monitor each on the fly.
