    Professional Grade Mic without the High Pricetag!
    Elgato constantly puts out amazing gaming, podcast, and video tech and their Elgato Wave 1 is no exception.Despite newer models of this Microphone series out, this microphone often is on sale and is has a highly competitive price to performance microphone.It's made with ease of use in mind, and marketed towards beginners wanting to up their sound quality game and get people into USB Condenser Mics. Whether you want to amazing quality voice recording for YouTube, Streaming, or even just Discord Calls with your friends, this is a good product to do just that.It's very plug in play, and easy to get running with an easy install of their microphone program (Elgato Wave Link) that will launch immediately when you plug in the microphone.CONS:Despite the microphone being decent out of the box, to get the full value of it's sound range, audio enthusiast will later find they will have to install quite of bit of compressors and Virtual Studio Technologies (VSTs) to make the microphone sound more natural and crisper. Luckily, Elgato's Official YouTube Channel has many tutorials and recommendations for how to install and tweak these settings!THE VERDICT:For the price, there is very few options for this level of quality in a USB Condenser Microphone that can compete with it. Highly recommend for those wanting to kickstart their tech journey!

    Reviewed in the United States 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.
