Description, highlights, and specifications from the retailer feed.
Wave:3 is a premium microphone and digital mixing solution that fuses plug and play convenience with broadcast-grade circuitry. Never clip again thanks to proprietary anti-distortion technology. Tap the capacitive sensor to silently mute your mic feed. Connect headphones for zero-latency monitoring.
