@@MurrayFrost hey is not showing the súper thanks on your video… !! I just got the SM7B and the wave XLR… I have a very noisy room because of the AC etc.. how could I set up the mic filters to be able to also use it on Zoom calls at the same time than OBS to stream?
for the delay what i did was mute the monitor output and put the mic/pc mix to about 30/70 and you get 0 latency monitoring. took me a bit to figure out because that delay drove me crazy.
@@MurrayFrost No problem, I actually came from using the Scarlett Solo 3rd gen and that has 0 latency monitoring but I wanted something that had some software implementation so the Wave XLR was the way to without getting a GoXLR Mini. Once I heard that delay I almost went back to the Scarlett. after playing around for a bit I noticed muting the monitor input and changing the mic/pc mix to that 30/70 worked pefect. Maybe I did something else. You can try it out and if you get the same result. Either way it was an amazing video.
ok i have couple of questions 1) i am playing a game and i am chatting with my friends in discord can i increase decrease game volume discord volume on the fly just astro headset. 2) i am playing a game while watching / listening to podcast in spotify / youtube can adjust game volume / youtube / spotify volume on the fly. when i say on the fly i mean using wave xlr nobe
Thanks for the video! You really helped me set everything up easily. But on the Discord Output, when I put Wave Link Monitor and did a mic test nothing was happening but when I selected Wave Link Stream and did a mic test, I could hear myself perfectly. But other than that, this video is top tier. Thank you
I do have 1 question. I have a PS5 and I also have a Capture Card & Chat Link to go with it. Can I plug my chat link into the xlr and plug my headset in the other opening to hear friends on the console? Hope that makes sense
its wrong, you dont connect wave link monitor to input on discord, no audio will come through. you can see in the video, on the yellow and green bar, nothing is being detected
Do You think there's a way to set it up in Wave Link so You can route the sound - when needed - to another soundcard (built-in on motherboard) and that way be able to "switch" between headphones and speakers connected to the soundcards output? I really wish this had monitor out or a line-out like a normal audio interface.
That’s a great combo and I have used that combo before. Just make sure you have the Wave XLR, SHURE SM7B, and a good XLR cable. If it’s not a quality cable, then nothing you do in audio processing will help. Aside from that, you will have a KILLER setup!
Everything is fine, but please let me know if we have one input to OBS (Stream Output), how to separate the sounds in OBS so that they are live and not on VOD (we do not have separated tracks in OBS). If this is not possible, the controls are unfortunately useless.
I got the rode procaster and the wave xlr. does anyone know whether I can connect a fathead to the rode procaster without damaging anything? Would work, would it not..?
How is mic monitoring? Is it zero (or as close to as possible), latency? IE - This is what it's like on the GoXLR and I use it every day for work (zoom calls etc). I'm looking to change from the GOXLR setup to something smaller and sleeker! Thanks,
I am really at a loss right now. I added some plugins in the Wave Link software. When I add the microphone in Garage Band or any other software by "Wave XLR", I record my mic but no plugins are working, no delay. When I use Wave Link Stream instead, I get active plugins, but a huuuuuuge delay. Recording my face with audio is not working with that huhe delay. I also get that delay in live zoom sessions, so that my face and voice are out of sync. What can I do? If I cannot use the Wave Link and plugins, using an XLR mic is essentially useless. But that delay is also not an option.
I take meditation over zoom but find it hard to get the levels of the music to match my voice correct . Is there an easy way on this where I know exactly what my students are hearing? Best wishes ☺️
Hey man, I got this wave xlr and when I select my output to my headphones running through the 3.5 on my motherboard no audio will come through the monitor mix. It will only work when I plug directly into the wave do you know why it won’t work? I can’t figure it out…
So I was using this with a usb wireless headset but keep seeing people use wired headset. Heard it’s better to use with wired headset instead of wireless. Maybe even better quality
is there a way to put voice chat (from discord) and game volume on the monitor mix dial? similar to how you can change the volume for both chat and game volume on an Astro Mixamp? rather than having to change the volumes in the software.
hey man! Thank you so much for this tutorial, however i noticed your discord link has expired, i was wondering if i could find that link anywhere else?
So I need help. I rewatched your review 3x and I still have an echo when I monitor stream. I have an xlr mic going to the wave and I have my wired headset going to my mixamp to my pc. All I want is the xlr mic to talk to stream and my headset/mic for team speak. I can hear output from team speak but when I talk I hear a slight echo or maybe it's a delay. When I undo monitoring teamspeak there's no echo. I've tried to just use my xlr mic for all comms but if I have teamspeak routed to the wave software there's still a voice echo from me. It has to be either in teamspeak or something to my headset I think. Thank you I'm grasping at this point.
I'm having an issue where I'm not able to hear the monitor mix/stream mix even though I see the audio in the Wave Link software. I'm using the ASTRO A50's and originally everything worked fine, I was able to hear/manage all the channels, then I restarted my PC and this issue started occurring. I've Uninstalled/reinstalled multiple times (with /without saved settings), Uninstalled/reinstalled drivers, tried different USB ports and nothing has solved it. and I can't seem to find a solution. Have you heard of this issue? Or what I could possibly try resolve it?
Ok. So first be sure you are using a 3.0 USB port. A 2.0 won’t work. And I have a full video step by step on how to set the software up, the audio channels, how to route them to the correct places and so on. It’s got it all czcams.com/video/4RKyiAKIhF0/video.html
Thank you for your video but I have a question. When you inquire about the setup to buy to operate an SM7B, there is very often the answer: a Cloudlifter amplifier and a Scarlett solo. My question is: Does the Elgato Wave XLR replace these two elements and does the job better or worse? Because I love the design of the Elgato Wave XLR but I prefer quality. Thanks !
@@MurrayFrost Thank You ! I'm just having a hard time understanding what Scarlett's solo is for if it's the Cloudlifter amp that's bringing the gain to the mic. Does it just convert the XLR to USB? If so, I understand the interest of the Elgato Wave XLR which is all in one
@@sylvainfx Yes - you are right - I always felt the whole cloudlifter setup was super dumb. If the poor mac /pc is powering these things - why would you need two - its all a marketing thing to make you buy more stuff - I like the idea of WaveXlr, I am going to try thing thing for my sm7b - hows your experience been?
@@GoodlifeInvestor Thank you for your reply. I bought the Wave XLR and the SM7B and the result is perfect. The microphone is very well amplified and my podcasts are embellished. In addition, it is exactly the same format as the Stream deck v2. This duo is very aesthetic and fully functional. 100% satisfied
Could you use the 3.5mm headphone jack a the back, and the wave software to stop you from hearing you own mic, to effectively turn it into a mic out line?
If I’m understanding correctly then no. You can set a line out (for a dual pc setup) if you use the listen feature in your windows sounds and set that to the headphone Jack on your pc and put that into your stream pc
Legit, same issue! I have tried everything, but seems the MV7 sounds better through USB. I cannot get it to not pick up so much background noise through Wave XLR either, spent many hours trying many things.
@@ChrisTheNjord have you tried a noise suppression programme like Krisp or RTX voice? I know I'm a bit late to react here, but both programmes are very effective at blocking background noise. Leaving the gain as low as you can can also really help. Perhaps using a pre-amp in order to leave the gain lower could also help. If you still need a cheap pre-amp, I'd suggest the klark teknik cm-1. It's pretty cheap and provides 25db of clean gain.
It's a shame the stream mix can't be changed to different outputs - I'd like to use the wave xlr for productivity and have the stream mix toggle be my speakers (connected to pc via USB). That way, if I'm editing video using speakers and a call comes in, I could hit mute on the wave xlr and put my headphones on. I'd also be able to use the big dial for speaker volume. I appreciate I could use the stream deck to mute/unmute the speakers but it would be great to use the wave xlr. I suppose I could connect the speakers to the headphone socket and my headphones to the pc line out? Seems a missed opportunity not to be able to use the stream mix for speakers and/or have a line in/out for speakers (or a 2 pc streaming setup)
@@MurrayFrost oh nice, is there info anywhere? I was leaning towards the Beacn mix create but would prefer the wave xlr for aesthetics (no doubt the mix create is a factor in them looking at this)
I am getting some loud white noise coming from my wave xlr. What do I do, if I turn off my phantom power my mic wont work, if I keep it on no matter how low the gain is that noise is still there. Any ideas on how to fix it?
my mic sounds like it is coming iinto the headphones 3 different times. On the mic vertical input, there is a slider for Mic mix/PC mix for the headphones. IF I turn it all the way to left then my mic sounds good, I can only hear it once. BUT, then I can't hear any system sounds. SO, I turn it all the way to right so 100% PC mix on headphone slider. THEN, I sound like a robot because for some reason its coming in 2 or 3 times. There is NO latency, but I sound like a robot. Elgato Wave XLR is the monitor mix. I've tried muting headphones , blah blah everything. The point is, I can only truly hear what my mic sounds like to stream IF, I turn it all the way left to mic mix. Any suggestions?
So I have a question. I just purchased this wave xlr but already had the goxlr mini paired with a rode pod mic. I have recently switched to a wave 3 mic since I normally stream and record with my son playing split screen games. Once I got used to using the wave link software I liked it. However once I went to set up the wave xlr with the rode por mic I quickly found out that I couldn't use a wave xlr and wave 3 mic at the same time?!... So my question is how do I use both the wave xlr for my rode pod mic for when I stream alone, and the wave 3 mic for when my son and I stream games? Do I just simply plug and unplug the other and all settings should stay the same? Or how can I integrate the goxlr mini into this?
Hmmm. That’s a tricky one because you can’t use two mics in the Wave Link software (and this is something I have asked Elgato to put in). And for the GoXLR, you might be able to have the pod mic on there while using the wave 3 on the wave link. You might get a slight echo as the audio levels may not line up exactly. It’s worth a shot though
@@MurrayFrost is there any chance you can make and post a video using the goxlr mini and using a wave 3 mic all with the proper settings? It doesn't have to all work at the we time but I want to be able to use the pod mic when I do solo streams but I'm the same day I would like to stream with my son using the wave 3 since it's a condenser mic...
OK, Thanks for the great tutorial. I have the Wave XLR, My question is this, would I need to set up VTS's on each column I create that I use for voice?
You can select the usb output on the wave xlr software (wave link). Keep in mind that as mentioned in the video, there will be a very slight delay if you are using usb headphones

Hello. I have purchased a stream deck to go along with streamlabs obs. My question is this. Is there a way to play a sound effect on the stream deck and also hear it through my speakers, so that I know it is working, but also have the stream here at the same time without an echo issue. Usually I would play a horn sound. I would not hear it only the stream would hear it. I would have to listen on another device to make sure that the sound effect horn or song is coming through. I want to play a song so that I can hear it while I'm playing it and the stream is playing as well. I want to play it through the computer or through the audio channel so that the sound is clear. For instance I don't want to have to put my mic by the speaker as the only way I can hear the audio and the stream here is the audio. The audio would be very degraded that way. I want to be able to press the horn button on the stream deck. Hear the horn sound coming out of my speakers so that I know it's working. While simultaneously My stream hears the horn sound as well clearly. Without setting my mic by output speaker which would degrade the sound, and without causing any echo issues.
@@MurrayFrost Basically, I have my stream deck, and you can create buttons on it and make it a soundboard. Then in StreamDeck settings, I can say that I want it to output the audio through the Music channel in goxlr and then have the music channel go through my mic to discord. Can I do that same thing with the Wave XLR ? have the people in Discord hear the ouput of my StreamDeck soundboard
So the rodecaster pro has 8 physical inputs with sliders and other great features but without the software. It’s like a watered down GoXLR. The Wave XLR is better than the rodecaster for streaming. The rodecaster pro is better for podcasts.
Yeah, if your pc is not that great that would be the only reason to have a dual pc setup but that does put a lot of other problems into the works that you have to figure out.
This software sucks, absolutely blows especially when switching from a GoXLR to this garbage. Nothing works the way it is supposed to, even after uninstalling everything and trying again, especially with Windows 11. I would rather just use a damn garbage headset with a mic at this point. two full days of troubleshooting and not once did this garbage work. about to just return all this crap and try something else.

It doesn't have to all work at the we time but I want to be able to use the pod mic when I do solo streams but I'm the same day I would like to stream with my son using the wave 3 since it's a condenser mic...
OK, Thanks for the great tutorial. I have the Wave XLR, My question is this, would I need to set up VTS's on each column I create that I use for voice?
You can put VST on other channels but you don’t need to. You only really need it for your mic
@@MurrayFrost Legend mate cheers,
How do you get the USB on the cloud flights to work with the wave XLR
You can select the usb output on the wave xlr software (wave link). Keep in mind that as mentioned in the video, there will be a very slight delay if you are using usb headphones
If i understand....i can connect my microphone via USB to my PC and still use the XLR?
What mic? What xlr?
@@MurrayFrost Would a hyper x quadcast be compatiable with the wave xlr being that it is a usb powered mic?
Hey Murray, what is your input Gain (dB) at for your Shure SM7B? I can hear my fan and background noise.
Check my new vid on noise removal. I activate two videos that will help. czcams.com/video/vziHZJQver8/video.html

Hello.
I have purchased a stream deck to go along with streamlabs obs. My question is this.
Is there a way to play a sound effect on the stream deck and also hear it through my speakers, so that I know it is working, but also have the stream here at the same time without an echo issue. Usually I would play a horn sound. I would not hear it only the stream would hear it. I would have to listen on another device to make sure that the sound effect horn or song is coming through. I want to play a song so that I can hear it while I'm playing it and the stream is playing as well. I want to play it through the computer or through the audio channel so that the sound is clear.
For instance I don't want to have to put my mic by the speaker as the only way I can hear the audio and the stream here is the audio. The audio would be very degraded that way.
I want to be able to press the horn button on the stream deck. Hear the horn sound coming out of my speakers so that I know it's working. While simultaneously My stream hears the horn sound as well clearly. Without setting my mic by output speaker which would degrade the sound, and without causing any echo issues.
This may help czcams.com/video/ADwQu5E6114/video.html
Is there anyway with this to rout the Soundsboardfunction of the Stream Deck to Discord, the same way you can with the GoXLR ?
Yll have to elaborate. What’s is soundsboaedfunction?
@@MurrayFrost Basically, I have my stream deck, and you can create buttons on it and make it a soundboard. Then in StreamDeck settings, I can say that I want it to output the audio through the Music channel in goxlr and then have the music channel go through my mic to discord.
Can I do that same thing with the Wave XLR ? have the people in Discord hear the ouput of my StreamDeck soundboard
Would this power 250 ohm headphones? DT990 pros to be exact
Yes. It will. Elgato talks about that too
What's the difference between with Rodecaster pro?
So the rodecaster pro has 8 physical inputs with sliders and other great features but without the software. It’s like a watered down GoXLR. The Wave XLR is better than the rodecaster for streaming. The rodecaster pro is better for podcasts.
@@MurrayFrost thanks for details
is it hard to set it up with a duel pc??
Nope. I have a video on how to do that
@@MurrayFrost please do as iv just ordered it with the stream deck plus
I don't think that dual PC setups are that useful anymore, but the lack of I/O is still annoying.
Yeah, if your pc is not that great that would be the only reason to have a dual pc setup but that does put a lot of other problems into the works that you have to figure out.
Thanks for the review, is having wave xlr enough to replace audio interface + cloud lifter? given that you used it with the SM7B in this video.
No problem and yes. You don't need a could lifter so things are much cheaper now too.
@@MurrayFrost Thank You.
This software sucks, absolutely blows especially when switching from a GoXLR to this garbage. Nothing works the way it is supposed to, even after uninstalling everything and trying again, especially with Windows 11. I would rather just use a damn garbage headset with a mic at this point. two full days of troubleshooting and not once did this garbage work. about to just return all this crap and try something else.
Bro you talk way to much. Just get on with tips.
🫣
Lmfao! Bro I don't remember posting this. I was about to respond to this comment saying stfu. But apparently it was me he who wrote it? Wtf lmao
