Frequently Asked Questions:
Question for Microphones Technical Support: Can I use Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile with lavalier microphones? If so, what adapter should I use?
Yes, you can use Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile with lavalier microphones. For the adapter to be compatible, the lavalier microphone needs to have a standard 3-pin XLR connector on it. In that case, an Elgato PowerPoint Pro Adapter is necessary for connecting the lavalier microphone to the Wave Mic Arm. To clarify further, here are the steps:
1. Connect the lavalier microphone using an XLR cable and a 3-pin connector to the mic input of your audio interface or recorder. Plug in the Elgato PowerPoint Pro Adapter into an electrical outlet or directly into the audio interface or recorder (depending on its portability). This adapter has three pins, one black, one white, and one without a pin (center pin). Make sure to plug it in correctly. Position the Wave Mic Arm at the desired height above your keyboard or other equipment. Adjust the arm's angle as needed using the provided knobs. Test your microphone levels by speaking into the mic and observing the LEDs on the PowerPoint Pro Adapter. They should light up when you speak loudly enough, indicating that everything is working correctly.
How do I properly install and set up the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile for use with my microphone?
Unbox the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile and ensure all necessary components are present, including the arm, base, screws, and washers. Clean your microphone and mic stand with a soft, dry cloth to remove any dirt or debris. This will help prevent scratches on the surfaces of the mic and mic stand during installation. Align the base of the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile with the mic stand's 5/8" threaded hole. Tighten the knob located on the underside of the base using a screwdriver to securely attach the arm to the mic stand. Attach your microphone to the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile by aligning the mic's thread with the threaded end of the arm's extension tube. Twist the mic onto the tube until it is snug, but do not overtighten. Adjust the angle and position of the mic using the adjustable joints on both ends of the arm. Move the mic until it is in the desired position for optimal recording or broadcasting. Connect your microphone to your audio interface or mixer using an XLR cable. Power up your equipment and test your mic's functionality to ensure proper sound quality. Clean the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile and all components with a soft, dry cloth after each use to prevent the buildup of dirt, dust, and debris over time.

Place the desktop mounting plate over the attached nuts and washers, making sure that the plate is centered and level. Slip the base of the mic arm onto the desktop mounting plate so that it rests on top of the nuts. Tighten the set screw on the bottom of the base until the mic arm is securely attached to the mounting plate. Adjust the angle and position of the mic arm as desired using the ball joint and spring-loaded tilt feature. The Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile has a compact design that allows for close proximity between the microphone and speaker, making it perfect for live streams or podcast recordings where space is limited.

Plug in your microphone to your computer's audio input and test its performance during a live stream or podcast recording to ensure optimal sound quality. The Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile is designed to improve mic placement for better acoustics, reducing background noise and enhancing voice clarity.
How do I properly attach the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile to my computer monitor for optimal microphone usage during streaming or podcasting?
To properly attach the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile to your computer monitor for optimal microphone usage during streaming or podcasting, follow these steps:
1. Begin by ensuring that your computer monitor has a VESA mount compatible with the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile. The VESA standard is an industry-wide interface for attaching displays to mounts. If your monitor does not have a VESA mount, you may need to purchase a separate mount adapter. Next, clean the surface of your monitor where you intend to attach the mic arm using a microfiber cloth and a mild cleaning solution. This will ensure that the adhesive on the VESA plate sticks properly. Attach the VESA plate included in the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile kit to the back of your monitor using the supplied screws. Make sure that the plate is securely fastened and level with the screen surface. Now, attach the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile to the VESA plate by aligning the arm's mounting points with those on the VESA plate. Push the mic arm firmly onto the plate until it clicks into place. Adjust the angle of the microphone as needed using the ball joint and locking mechanism. You can also move the arm up, down, left or right to position the microphone at the optimal distance from your mouth for crystal-clear audio quality during streaming or podcasting sessions. Finally, connect the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile's USB cable to your computer and plug in the included power adapter. The mic arm is now ready to use!
By following these steps, you can ensure that the Elgato Wave Mic Arm Low Profile is attached securely to your monitor for optimal microphone usage during streaming or podcasting sessions.
