Elgato XLR Dock for Stream Deck +, Audio Mixer Interface

This replaced two boxes I used to connect my XLR RODE Podcaster to my computer. I previously needed a preamp and a USB audio interface (a PreSonus TubePre V2 and a PreSonus Studio 24c, both excellent), but this dock replaced all their functionality and added a great deal more besides. Coupled with the Stream Deck, this has completely transformed my YouTube videos and made the process far more enjoyable. I can now record, stream and set up complex commands with a single click. I can add vocal effects, sounds, remix audio, and change what appears in the stream with ease, with just this one item (as the dock and Stream Deck connect and become a single piece of tech) and the two pieces of software that sit in the background. Such a brilliant piece of kit, if you are looking at this thinking it MIGHT help, please give it a go, it won't only help, it'll supercharge everything. I sometimes want to hug it and tuck it in at night.

Was very easy to attach to the stream deck+. Worked straight away. I had a mini xlr that was causing issues with my sound and mic, and no matter what I did I couldn't get the problems solved. Purchased this with the stream deck+ and it's been an amazing combination. Easy to setup, easy to use and looks nicer in my opinion on my desk than the mini xlr.

Amazing addition to the Stream deck +. Allowing you to connect an XLR microphone to the Stream Deck and control the audio quality with plugins. I love it.

The Elgato XLR Dock is an excellent add-on that transforms your Stream Deck + into a highly capable, space-saving audio interface and control center. For content creators, streamers, and podcasters who already own the Stream Deck +, this dock is a near-essential upgrade that neatly integrates high-quality XLR microphone input and audio mixing directly into your desk controller.

I’ve had the Wave XLR and I wanted to buy another XLR microphone in order to have two of them, and considering I also had from before the Streamdeck +, I decided to buy the XLR Dock Mk2 accessory. But the bad news started when I connected it, it’s not compatible with Windows 10, and according to Microsoft, my PC didn’t meet requirements for upgrading to Windows 11, so I had to buy the original version (second hand) XLR Dock v1 in order to make it work. But then when I plugged it in, the Wave Link software v2.0 doesn’t support two or more wave devices connected, and in order to make it work, I had to download the new version of Wave Link, v3.0. But it’s only compatible with Windows 11. So after a big headache, I managed to update my pc to Windows 11 by configuring some options on the BIOS, and then I managed to update it. So now, everything works alright so the problem was the Operative System and the Wave Link software v2.0 as in order to connect 2 or more wave devices, you will need definitely the Wave Link v3.0 that only works from Windows 11.

Simple to setup if you have an xlr audio mic feed and 30 seconds to undo two screws and screw them back in through the dock. Wavelink software is a little confusing. It packs a lot of advanced audio management into a simple interface but its still a lot of advanced audio management. I had been using the goxlr for 5+ years which had begun failing and resetting. Of all the options this looked the best and three weeks down the line Im pleased. If you're not somebody who knows the ins snd outs of PC audio it will be a learning curve. I'm fairly technical and its been a journey for me.

Wonderful bit of kit

I had high hopes for this xlr interface, but honestly I had lots of technical hurdles when connected to my mac. I’ve sent mine back and swapped it for a Vocaster One at half the price. Works like a charm now. Im sure the elgato interface works great with a pc though.

me ahorro espacio en mi setup

専用になってしまうと思うので評価は高いです。Stream Deckを使用していて同社のXLRマイクを使うつもりで接続する術がないなら最適解です。接続が不安定になることもなく一体感もあり省スペースで言うことないです！

البرنامج مو مستقر بشكل كافي، فيه مشاكل في الأداء. المايك فيه كويس لكن مش الأفضل، في خيارات أفضل بكثير خصوصًا إذا كنت تستخدم ميكروفونات مثل “شور”. لو كنت مبتدئ وبتستخدم “رود” أو “فيفاين” ممكن يعجبك ويناسبك، لكن للمحترفين فيه مكسرات ثانية أفضل بكثير

Keeps your desk less cluttered by turning the Stream Deck+ into an XLR mic input. The pre-amps are suitable for the majority of users' microphones, and the WaveLink software features VST plugin support, making this the best microphone input device marketed towards Gamers and Streamers by a long mile. The only downside of this device is the output quality of the headphone out port. At just 77mW and only 3.5mm connectivity, it's not a great source to drive high-end listening devices. You will want a separate DAC/Amplifier to drive your devices. Overall, this unit works incredibly well. Personally, I went ahead and bought third-party VSTs on a black friday sale (AI noise cancellation, standard background noise reducer, 6-band EQ, and a compressor/expander). Now all my microphone processing is independent of whatever VoIP service I'm using, and it's tweakable to sound much better than what most services provide by default. The VSTs that come with the device provided by Elgato are more than good enough for most users, so it's definitely not a requirement to spend extra on third-party plugins. Great product with great functionality. Good job, Elgato!

Works well, legit product. Highly recommend to integrate if you use xlr mic and want wavelink etc.
