Today I review the El Gato Wave 3 USB Condenser Microphone. This mic also includes a digital mixer allowing you to capture 5 additional sound sources and mix them for your stream. The sound is balanced, although a little lacking in the low end below 100Hz. I compare it to the Blue Snowball, Rode NT USB Mini, Blue Yeti, Hyper X Quadcast, Razer Seiren X, SM7b and More.
