Elgato Wave Mic Arm Pro, Gas Spring Microphone Arm

I've had an "overhead" style mic arm in the past but I haven't used it in a while because it takes up too much space and conflicts with my monitor setup. For my video conferencing / online meetings, I've just been using the built in mic on my web cam, until I heard enough people tell me the audio wasn't that good. I recently saw an online review of this and didn't even realize that this lower style of mic arm existed. I decided to give it a try, and I really think it is perfect. Firstly, or where I clamp it onto my desk, it reaches exactly where I need it to be for perfect mic placement during my meetings. It stays low so I can even keep the mic out of the frame. The adjustability and flexibility are great, and the build quality is excellent. The cable management works well with the hidden wire space on the bottom of the arm. It did take me a bit to figoure out how to remove the magnetic panels - unless you know they are there, they are invisible, and it was tricky to pull them off to run the cable. Once you know how to do it, then it is fine, and you probably won't need to take them off often. The clamp to hold this onto the desk is very good. The inside of the clamp is padded so it won't damage the desk, and it can open very wide to accommodate a thicker desktop. The handle is ratcheted so if you are unable to spin the handle a full 360 degrees (which I could not) then you can still clamp this on. It is an excellent design and holds the arm firmly. The two-piece design of the arm makes it very flexible to place the mic at any angle. You can fold the arm back on itself to save space when you're not using it - this is much better than the "up and over" arms which are always in the way. There is also a small riser piece that you can either place on the clamp, or on the middle section where the two arm pieces meet, or leave it out entirely - this gives you a bit of flexibility as to how the arm pieces will sit. With the various attachment adapters included, you can attach different types of microphones or even other accessories such as lights or small cameras. Although it is a "mic arm", you can really use it to hold anything with a screw connector. The tension is adjustable and although I have not had to adjust mine at all for use with a standard vocal microphone, I have seen others adjust it to hold quite heavy items without sagging. My only niggle is that although this comes with an Allen wrench for adjustment and some mic adapters, there is no place to store them with the stand. I'd love to see a place near the clamp to be able to store the wrench and adapters when not in use. Now I have to find a place to put them and remember where they are. They do come in a small envelope so I suppose that I can simply tape that to the stand near the clamp where they are out of the way. PROS: * Build quality and finish are excellent * Very flexible in terms of positioning options * The low arm style is much better than the "up and over" style for many situations * Desk clamp is padded to prevent damage * Clamp handle is ratcheting to allow for installation under all mounting conditions * Comes with two adapters to adapt the holder for different mic mount sizes * Excellent cable management with undersize magnetic covers that hold tight and are invisible CONS: * No place to store the Allen wrench and mic adapters * Although the arms are height adjustable, you can't change their length. Shorter and/or longer replacement options might be nice as an additional accessory Conclusion: You might be able to find cheaper versions from other companies, but in my mind, it's worth it to pay a bit more to get this very high quality product.

Great build quality and easily attached to the desk with it acrew on mechanism. It does have pads to touch the desk so there's no meatl hitting it. The screw tools allow you to tight or loosen to your preferred angle which is a great tough. Setup is very easy. A little tricky figuring out Mic position (Shure MV7+), but only took a few minutes.

Im not big on writing reviews, but my experience warranted sharing. After trying many mic boom arms for my home office desk setup, I found this one to be by far the best. I have an older Blue Yeti mic (1.5lbs) and I wanted an arm that can hold it overhead out of camera shot. I also wanted one I could dynamically reposition without having to untighten and retighten a bunch of joints. I tried several arms including from companies I would normally expect - from experience - to have great products, and was continually disappointed. A professional studio would use a high end Yellowtec or OC White boom arm but for 3-5x the price. What is available for the rest of us who need a good product without having to take out a second mortgage? This boom arm is exactly what I was looking for. I can put the mic exactly where I want it for a specific use case and it is very stable. It makes no noise as you move it around and the spring tension is adjustable to the weight of the mic so it will stay where you put it. It's a little skinnier than a high end arm but it is very adequate to the weight of something like a typical podcasting or vocal mic. The skinny size makes it unobtrusive and the springs are internal which I prefer. The magnetic cable covers are brilliant. It can be mounted overhead or slide out from under your monitors. Either way, it makes for a very clean and professional looking setup. Super pleased!

I got mine used and it works great. It felt a little weird at first because the low-profile design moves differently than a basic boom arm, but once I got used to it, I really liked it. Reviews and specs consistently praise this arm for its smooth gas-spring movement, quiet adjustments, hidden cable management, and strong all-metal build. It also supports up to 3 kg / 6.6 lbs, so it can handle heavier mics better than a lot of cheaper arms. The main downside is the price, and some people may need a little time to get comfortable with the way a low-profile arm positions compared with more traditional boom arms. Overall, it’s a very solid mic arm if you want a cleaner desk setup and smoother

Best mic arm I’ve ever had. It’s a massive upgrade from the cheap one I was using before. This one swivels smoothly with no noise, adjusts easily, and stays exactly where I want it. Very sturdy, premium feel to it.

I actually bought this mount for an asus 16" zenscreen. I purchased the optional bolt down mount and am using it for a bedside monitor at night. It works perfectly.

Based on Youtube reviews and all the "Top lists" and needing to upgrade my mic arm, I bought this. Really sturdy, Smooth adjustments, easy cable management. Definitely worth if you want a low profile mic arm. IT ALSO DOESNT Squeak when you move it around. It also comes with a small piece that can raise it up a little higher if you have a few tall things on your desk.

I own both a Rode PSA-1 and the standard Wave Arm LP. Of the three, this is definitely my favorite, but it does have some faults. First, the good things: -It uses the same desk clamp as everything else they sell, which is a great clamp. -It now includes a riser, which solves a problem I had with the original LP. Without the riser, the lower arm would bonk into my audio interface and get in the way of my keyboard. The riser raises it up enough to clear the interface, just barely clear a regular Stream Deck, and keep it far enough away from my keyboard that I could still type under it if I wanted, all without being so tall that it can't go under my monitor. -The ball joint where the mic attaches seems much stronger, especially with the new handle. While it wasn't a big deal, the original could still be moved even when fully tightened. This one holds very strongly. -Much improved magnets for cable management. These are NOT coming off unless you want them to. -Pneumatic upper arm for easier positioning! No more sagging because you've got an SM7B on there. Just a lot of little quality of life updates to an already great arm. But there are still a few things I would've liked to see: -The ball joint doesn't maintain position when adjusting the arm up or down. On the PSA-1, as you move the arm up or down, the mic stays level (or however you positioned it). That is not the case with this one. On the one hand, it's not that big of a deal as most streamers aren't going to be moving this up and down a lot; on the other hand, if it's not going to be moved a lot, there's no reason to have pneumatics in the first place, so you might as well have the mic stay level for the people that are actually going to want the pneumatics. Again, it's pretty minor, but still a con. -The lower arm does not have a hole on the top for the cable to come out of, which would have enabled even cleaner cable management. -The arms are not any wider than the original, which means you still can't hide a Fethead in the cable channels. I wish they made them just a smidge wider for that reason. -The joint covers are not keyed, which means they rotate freely. That does mean you can position them however you want, but it also means that you can't perfectly match the left and right sides to the same angle. I may be the only person who cares about that, though. All in all, a solid upgrade over the original and if you can afford it (the cost is also a con, really), it's definitely the one to get. But it does feel like they could've done a bit more market research or testing and fixed a few odd omissions.

Sobre et efficace, il fait son travail. Parfait pour un setup épuré avec le cache-câbles ! Et quand on a goûté au low profile, c’est top : fini le bras qui traverse tout le setup !

Trovato in offerta, è comunque un prodotto costoso. A parte questo, è stabile, il fatto che sia regolabile a seconda del peso del microfono è ciò che consente la precisione nel posizionamento. Occupa molto meno spazio rispetto ai supporti alti, sappiate che comunque la parte bassa del braccio la avrete "sopra la tastiera". Con il rialzo integrato, sia lei che il mouse restano utilizzabili, diventa difficile se dovete guardarci su o avete vicino delle pulsantiere come lo stream deck. Ciò detto, altamente consigliato, se quelli sopra per voi non sono problemi

I've tried every arm for my shure mic, and they all sucked! This is the best arm for Mics! I trid going cheap, as I was like: "It's only holding mic, it doesn't NEED to be super expensive" Well, you pay for what you get. You want a Mic holder that stays put where you put it, and never have issues with it! This is the one. I'll only buy Elgato Products for my streaming set up from now on! They are just the best, period!

اذا عندك مايك ثقيل مثل الشور وتبي تحركه بسهولة، خذ هالستاند وريح عمرك نصيحة. صدق انه غالي شوي عن غيره بس والله يفرق. جربت ستاندات كثير قبله وضاعت فلوسي عليهم، لو اني شاريه من اول كان وفرت على نفسي ضعف السعر او اكثر

Definitely worth it over the non pro model, it has quality of life features you didn't even know you wanted and even with the heafty price tag I would still recommend it to people.
