Elgato, a brand of CORSAIR, today announced Wave Next, the company's next generation of audio products and the most significant evolution of the Wave platform since its debut in 2020. Wave Next brings together six deeply integrated products: Wave Link 3.0 software, Wave:3 MK.2, Wave XLR MK.2, XLR Dock MK.2, Wave XLR Pro, and Stream Deck + XL. Together, they form a cohesive ecosystem spanning audio capture, processing, and control, built for how modern creators and professionals actually work.
"When we launched the first Wave microphone in 2020, we set out to make audio workflows easier for creators," said Julian Fest, SVP and General Manager of Elgato. "Since then, hundreds of thousands of real-world setups have taught us what works, what is still too complicated, and where the real bottlenecks are. Wave Next is the synthesis of everything we have learned, reimagined into a single platform offering powerful software that is now free for everyone, hardware that processes audio at the source, and physical controls that make managing it all feel effortless."
