Two Timeless Colours

Wave:3 comes in bright white and beautiful black.

Lewitt Audio Inside

Headquartered in Vienna, Austria, LEWITT Audio subjects its microphones to rigorous calibration and quality control in world-class testing facilities with seasoned sound engineers. That’s how they get their microphones into legendary recording studios, and why we’ve equipped Wave microphones with their audio technology. It’s how you get that sonic signature your audience will notice.

Get Amped Without Clipping

Now 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 that runs at a lower volume. The result is clean audio output, no matter how loud you scream.

Wave Link: the Creator's Mixer

Intuitive software custom-built for content creation, Wave Link gives you ultimate control of your Twitch stream, YouTube video or podcast audio.

Multi-Channel Command

Game audio, voice chat, music, alerts, samples, multiple mics(Multiple Wave mics are not supported at this time) and more. Nine independent input channels let you blend audio sources in real time.

Submixing Mastery

Create two completely independent output mixes — one for you, one for your audience — and monitor each on the fly.

Thousands of Effects

Equip channels with third-party VST plugins like EQ, compression, or reverb. The power to customize your sound is virtually limitless.
