Key Features

THE NEW BENCHMARK

We didn’t just improve Wave XLR — we rewired its entire signal path. Onboard effects processing and ultra-low latency monitoring now work together as one, powered by Wave Link mixing software. The result? Pro audio control made easy, and a broadcast voice that’s impossible to ignore.

HARDWARE

GIVE YOUR MIC SUPERPOWERS

More than an interface, perfect for your DX or SM7B. Wave XLR integrates any analog mic directly into the Wave ecosystem, giving it the digital brains it never had.

WAVE FX

The Pro in the Processor

Your voice flows through Clipguard, onboard DSP, and VST effects in one continuous signal path. So you get studio-grade sound with super-responsive monitoring, but none of the routing complexity.

Clipguard 2.0

UNCLIPPABLE AUDIO

Our intelligent anti-distortion system creates a layered defense that makes clipping virtually impossible, no matter how loud things get. Powered by your device’s Wave FX Processor, Clipguard lets you express yourself freely without holding back or watching levels.

How it works

As your signal moves from analog to digital, Clipguard automatically applies safeguards to prevent clipping before it can occur. Turn it on once for protection forever, without ever compromising your sound quality.

Multi-range capture

Stacked ADC converters work together to stop overload at the source

Internal 32-bit float

Massive headroom means volume spikes never hit the digital limit

Final output control

Digital limiters smooth out sudden peaks before they hit your system

DSP Effects

Shape your sound

Professional effects like EQ and compression run right on our Wave FX chip, processing your voice at the source. The result is instant, broadcast-ready sound that you can hear in real time and take with you to any device.
