Elgato Wave:3 MK.2

- Onboard Wave FX processor with DSP effects and Clipguard 2.0 anti-distortion
- Auto Gain and an LED ring for easy level setting
- Tap-to-mute and a multifunction dial for gain, headphone volume and mix
- Zero-latency monitoring through the 3.5 mm headphone jack
- Wave Link support, including VST insert plugins

- Connection: USB-C, with a 3.5 mm headphone output
- Requirements: Windows 11 or newer, or macOS 14.2 or newer
- Includes: desk stand, USB-C cable and 5/8 in and 3/8 in adapters

Good to know:
