I've had a number of Blue Yeti mics and, for years, have generally preferred Amazon Basics Professional Condenser Microphones over the Blue Yeti. The audio quality from the Elgato Wave Neo mic is on par with the Blue Yeti and Amazon Professional Condenser mic. It has a cardioid pattern that, as far as I can tell, is not adjustable to other patterns. So, it does lack some features that those other mics have, but I don't do face-to-face interviews or anything, so my mics are ALWAYS set to cardioid anyway. The mic has audio out, but my understanding is that this is just a nearby 3.5mm jack for headphones and it is NOT an audio monitor jack for hearing yourself. I've generally preferred the Amazon mic over the Blue Yeti because of the OLED display. That sounds silly, but it's a great way to see when my mic is muted. I have, for years, used my Stream Deck to toggle my mic mute back and forth and I liked how the OLED was always in sync with that status. I know the Blue Yeti had a mute capability but clicking things on microphones to mute/unmute almost always introduces noise that the other end can hear, so I've always gone with the software solution instead. Fast forward to this Elgato Wave Neo, and my process is changing a bit. I've stopped using my Stream Deck to toggle mute because the Elgato has a capacitive touch button to mute/unmute which turns a light white/red based on status. It's a VERY touch-sensitive button, which I like because I can barely touch it (or not even touch it) to mute/unmute so there's no bumping of the mic. This frees up a Stream Deck button and is nicer/more obvious mute display. Plus, the mic is easily the best looking mic I've ever seen. It no longer looks like hardware pulled from the local radio station but looks sleek and stylish. Plus, USB C. No more Micro USB falling out of the Amazon mic when I bump my desk wrong. It's a weird boot (for aesthetics) on the USB cable that plugs into the mic, but I think a normal cable would work just fine, as well. Overall, yes, I'd highly recommend this mic. In fact, I prefer this over all other mics I've had so far. And it is EASILY the best-looking mic available!

I'm not a professional. I want to sound good while gaming with my friends online. Before I purchased this mic I was using an XLR mic and interface, and I could never get it to sound good. In contrast, setting up the Elgato was very easy and it sounded great out of the box. I think this microphone costs a third of what I paid for that other stuff, but it outperforms it handily and gets rid of some desk clutter too. I was able to attach this microphone to my existing mic arm I got a long time ago, but it also comes with a nice weighted desktop stand. The Wave Link software you are entitled to with this microphone is great, allowing you to install plug-ins. I have it going to Nvidia Broadcast first, then back into Wave Link to run through its own noise suppression and a condenser (both VERY easy to set up for those who know nothing). This has brought the clacking sound of my mechanical keyboard to nearly imperceptible levels while I'm talking and silent while I'm not talking. My only lament is that I wish it came in black so it would match my desk, mic arm, and peripherals, but it's otherwise so good that I can happily live with a slightly tacky look.

This mic sounds really great and its a steal when its on sale. I got it as a travel mic and when im home I have the El Gato Wave 3 and i can confidently say this doesn't sound too far off. its a great if you don't stream and your a gamer who just games and want a simple, easy, quality and cute mic.

I run a YouTube channel and upgraded to this microphone from the TONOR TC30 (and Blue Snowball before that). I had been looking at Elgato products for a while and decided to take a chance on the Neo line of products. My audience immediately noticed the difference and complimented the audio on the first video with the Elgato Neo Mic. The Wave Link Software also made applying settings a breeze. Regardless of whether I run the MIC through OBS or StreamYard, the audio clarity has always been spot in. I have the mic mounted to the Tonor boom arm and love the small form factor of the mic because it stays out of sight of view of my camera but still allows me to put it close to my face and also love the touch panel for the mute. I've been using it for a few months now and have never had an issue. Thoroughly impressed and I'm looking into expanding into the our items in the NEO line.

The mic is easy to setup and sounds pretty good for the price. I would score it higher but the mic stand has a terrible design flaw. It comes in three pieces and the top piece doesn't connect properly to the bottom two. It just balances on a metal peg. This makes it very wobbly, and if you try to pick it up the whole base falls out from the top part. They acknowledged the problem and sent a replacement, but when the replacement had the same problem they said that's the "intended behavior." I was excited to use this misc but definitely wouldn't buy it again.

Es mi tercer micrófono, la verdad es el mejor que he tenido. El audio es limpio, claro y sin ninguna distorsión. El diseño es muy bonito y me gusta que tiene el botón para silenciar el micrófono. Además, si te gusta experimentar con el mundo del audio con este micrófono tienes acceso al software wave link que permite modificar todas las opciones del micrófono, añadir filtros y ecualizadores que mejorarán la calidad de audio y la personalizarán al gusto del usuario. Es mi primer micrófono de esta marca y la verdad es impresionante, espero comprar más productos de el gato

Microfono ottimo per rapporto qualità prezzo. • Design minimal, pulito, adatto in qualsiasi postazione. • Qualità dei materiali decisamente buona • Funzionamento ottimo, gestione tramite software dedicato molto intuitiva e personalizzabile • Cavo telato sufficientemente lungo • Base solidissima, si può settare su quest’ultima a due altezze praticamente, una un po’ più da tavolo e un’altra più rialzata. Volendo si può comunque agganciare ad un braccio. • Packaging ecosostenibile, molto apprezzato. - L’assemblaggio non è super solido, stabile, anche dopo aver montato il microfono, se lo si tocca un po’ il pezzo del microfono sembra ruotare o comunque oscillare, tuttavia non è niente di grave.
