Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP - Premium Low Profile Microphone Arm with Cable Management Channels, Desk Clamp, Versatile Mounting, and Fully Adjustable – For Podcasting, Streaming, Gaming, and Home Office

The Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP is exactly what I was looking for to clean up my desk setup. The low-profile design keeps the arm out of the camera frame while still putting the mic right where it needs to be. It looks sleek and professional without taking over the desk. Movement is smooth and quiet, and once positioned, it stays put. The build quality feels premium, with sturdy joints and strong tension that easily support a heavier mic. Installation was quick, and the cable management channels are a nice touch for keeping everything tidy. If you stream, work from home, or just want a clean, minimalist mic setup, this arm is absolutely worth it. Reliable, well designed, and built to last.

I’ve tried a few mic arms, and this one is by far my favorite. The low-profile design is perfect for my setup, giving everything a clean, professional look. I have it mounted at the back of my desk, and it just seems to float in place. The built-in cable management keeps things tidy, and the range of motion makes it easy to swing out of the way when not in use. Build quality is excellent—sturdy, smooth, and reliable. Highly recommend!

I use this arm for voiceovers/streaming, and it’s been a nice upgrade from my old boom arm. The low-profile style keeps everything below eye level, so my camera shot looks cleaner and my screen isn’t blocked. It supports my mic well, doesn’t drift during use, and the clamp grips my desk securely. Installation took me around 10 minutes. Build quality feels good—not premium-premium, but definitely reliable for everyday use. If you’re trying to improve desk space and keep your setup looking neat, this is a good pick.

Previously I used this scissor arm: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CN2C93T, and this one blows it out of the water in every way. Range of motion: The old one wasn't straight like this one is, so the range of upward motion was limited before the arm would hit the monitor, now the mic avoids the monitor and can be placed exactly where it should be. Cable management: I had my cabled strapped down onto my old arm, and I never realized how messy it looked until I threaded the cables through this one, it looks so much tidier now! Getting the mic where it matters: I have a directional mic, it has to be close and right in front of my face. With my old arm I had to compromise to get it into place. I had it low (almost hitting the keyboard) and several inches from my face. Moving it out of the way was a bit of a hassle too so I just left it there. With this new arm, The mic can lean right towards me, completely out of the way of my keyboard, and moving it is as easy as just pushing it out of the way, no worries about it hitting a monitor or anything. Sturdiness/Support: The old arm had all the weight placed on a small metal bar that slotted into its clamp. Eventually this bar would bend under the pressure and it would cause the arm to sag. The scissor arm also tends to make noise and jiggle when my desk is disturbed. This new arm has a much sturdier way of slotting into its clamp. It's much harder to disturb it, and jiggling my desk will cause my monitor to move moreso than this arm. All in all, they nailed it when it comes to a design that works around monitors. You don't have to sacrifice typing space because a bulky arm is hanging over your keyboard. You don't have to block a portion of your screen. You can move the arm smoothly out of the way when you don't need it. The clamp is nice and wide so it should fit on most desks. Between the ball joint and angling the arm, you can accommodate a wide range of configurations. Super easy to set up, it looks great and even comes with adapters to fit your mic mount. Love this product and would recommend it to anyone.

The Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP is great quality overall, especially at the price of $70-75 USD. The parts are (mostly) metal, the magnets of the cable covers are strong although the covers may excessively bend the cable, the tension system does the job, and the ratchet of the clamp has good ergonomics. Plus, the screw is versatile with camera support and a large customizable range of motion. The main flaw is that the clamp might not be able to support heavier microphones to the best of its ability. My microphone is from Shure and weighs around 500-600 grams according to their manual, a bit lighter than the industry standard SM7B at 760 grams. The boom arm drops a bit when setting the height of the second, so you have to account for that by raising it higher. The larger issue is that the clamp may slip gradually if you have the arm outward away from the table. My clamp's padding has been ripped on top and displaced on the bottom because of the gradual movement due to the microphone's weight. Again, the boom arm is satisfactory, but it's not the cleanest experience and would like to see the clamp avoid ripping and moving the padding due to the microphone's weight. I recommend this boom arm, overall.

I bought this arm to go along with my Rode NT-USB microphone (seen in the photo accompanying this review). It works fantastically, allowing me to position the mic wherever I want for recording or video calls to achieve perfect sound quality. It was easy to assemble and set up on my desk. The wire routing setup and wire cable channels are very cleverly designed. I have been using this for a couple of months now, and I can't think of anything I would change on this arm. It is very sturdy, and the ease of movement is perfect for a mic boom so it is only where you want it to be when you want it. Even though I am using it with the Rode mic, it can accommodate other mics with 1/4, 38, and 5/8 threads.

Después de usar el Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP durante varias semanas, estoy realmente impresionado con su diseño y funcionamiento. Es un brazo pensado para setups limpios y profesionales, y se nota desde el primer momento. Lo más destacable es el perfil bajo. A diferencia de los brazos tradicionales que suelen bloquear parte del monitor, este se mantiene por debajo de la línea de visión, lo que permite tener la mesa más despejada y una vista totalmente libre de la pantalla. Para streaming o trabajo diario es una ventaja enorme. La construcción es sólida, sin holguras ni ruidos metálicos. Los movimientos son suaves y silenciosos, y mantiene el micrófono firme incluso con modelos pesados. No he tenido que estar ajustando tornillos ni reapretando nada: una vez colocado, se queda en su sitio. Detalles que me han gustado mucho: • ✔️ Gestión de cables integrada, muy limpia y práctica • ✔️ Base estable y firme, no se mueve ni con golpes suaves en la mesa • ✔️ Ajustes fluidos, puedes mover el micrófono sin hacer ruido • ✔️ Excelente para setups pequeños o escritorios pegados a la pared • ✔️ Compatible con la mayoría de micrófonos XLR y USB

This is one of the most hidden finds ever. It's the OP low profile arms and it should be used for most of the situations. Anyone wants my old overhead mic arm?

These things are a very well made, beautiful bit of gear. Solid metal, and the low profile looks great. I love Rode gear and was going to go with one of their arms but I'm glad I went with these ones. They just look great, function as they are supposed to, and there isn't garish branding plastered all over it. The hidden cable channels function well, and the magnets are very strong. If you need a massive reach these probably aren't the arms for you. But for an everyday setting on a table or a desk or simply podcast setup these are great. This isn't really a con, more of a suggestion. I'd love to see a little clip or cutout on the clamp somewhere to hold the Allen key full time to use for tightening the arms when needed. And I'd also love a little bag to put them in when in transit, so they don't chip or scratch.

This is a very nice mount. I did use cheaper ones before as I thought well, it’s only a mount it’s not that big of a deal. However they were always a bit finicky, kinda flimsy, etc. This mount however is well made, solid, you can hide the cable itself within the frame, and it’s easily adjustable. Once you’ve got your height setting done, it’s easy and smooth to slide it out when not in use, or bring it in when in use. It also looks nice, much better than a lot of other mic mounts available.
