Elgato Wave XLR mic audio interface sees rare price drop to $120 for your content creation rig

Reg. $160/$120

Alongside some hangover Prime Day deals on its streaming and content creation lighting, Amazon is now offering the Elgato Wave XLR Audio Mixer Interface for $119.99 shipped. Regularly $160 and rarely ever on sale, this is a solid 25% off the going rate. Alongside built-in phantom power, this model allows folks to connect XLR mics to their PC or Mac via USB-C and, as you can see in the image above, pairs nicely with the Elgato Stream Decks. Alongside the brand’s “proprietary Clipguard technology [that] prevents microphone distortion,” the companion Wave Link app allows users to combine the mic input with multiple audio sources and create two independent mixes alongside the large heads-up multifunctional control knob and 3.5mm headphone jack. More details below. 

Today’s lead deal is quite a competitive price for XLR input and a design like you see above – it’s the same price as the popular Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen – but there are more affordable options out there. This M-Audio M-Track Duo might not sit alongside your other Elgato gear quite the same, but it will provide a pair of combo XLR and 1/4-inch inputs for even less at $69 shipped.
