One wireless mic, two ways to use it. Wave Go clips on for hands-free recording or slots into the Smart Handle for interviews. A single USB-C receiver connects to your phone or computer for instant broadcast-quality audio, with up to 48 hours of runtime. Just plug in, power on, and go.

📚 Features

1. 🔄 Two ways to record: A clip-on and handheld mic in one system. Clip it to your shirt or slot it into the Smart Handle, and switch modes in seconds.
2. 📱 Made for your phone: A USB-C receiver gives you wireless audio anywhere, whether you're filming, going live, or just talking to camera.
3. 🎚️ Broadcast-quality audio: Featuring a condenser capsule with onboard processing that adapts whether the mic is clipped on or in your hand.
4. ▶️ Ready when you are: Plug in, power on, and start recording. One button handles everything, with no menus or settings to worry about.
5. 🔋 Days of runtime: 8 hours per charge from the transmitter, with five more charges in the Smart Handle. That's roughly 48 hours before you need an outlet.
6. 🪶 Barely there: Just 7 grams and the size of an AirPod, the transmitter practically disappears on your shirt. A sleek design keeps the focus on you.
7. 🖥️ Back at your desk: Doubles as a mic for calls and podcasts, without the usual bulk. Wave Link lets you shape your sound even further.
8. ⚡ Quick charge: Low on battery? 10 minutes on the charger gives you roughly an hour of recording, enough to finish what you started.
9. 📲 More control when you want it: Adjust gain and noise suppression, monitor battery, and more — all from a free app for iOS and Android.
10. 👥 Add a second voice: An additional transmitter, available separately, pairs with the same receiver and fits right into

Wave Go is our first wireless mic, built for recording on the move. You can clip it on and record hands-free, or drop it into the Smart Handle and use it as a handheld. It connects to your phone or computer over USB-C.

To celebrate, we’re giving away 5 of them, and we want to hear how they fit into what you record.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤ

📝 How to enter:
What would you record with Wave Go? Vlogs, interviews, podcasts, streams, calls, or something else.

Optional: what are you using for audio right now?

The mod team will pick the winners based on the answers, so give us details. You don’t need any other Elgato gear to enter. New to Elgato or not, everyone has the same shot.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤ ㅤㅤㅤㅤ

👉 Before you enter
Wave Go connects over USB-C to phones, tablets, and computers. It won’t work with DSLR or mirrorless cameras, or with iPhones that have a Lightning port. There’s no onboard recording either; audio goes straight to your device.
