Elgato Project Wave review - what is Project Wave? After many, many months, I can finally talk about it! "Project Wave" is actually two products: Wave:1 and Wave:3. These are USB microphones paired with a virtual mixer software akin to the GoXLR or Voicemeter which make for quite the compelling product, especially for the price.
