## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the Wave:1 have a mute button?**
A: Yes. The Wave 1 does have a mute button and it can be found on the dial of the microphone where you control headphone output - Simply press into the dial and it will mute the Wave 1. 

This is unlike the Wave 3 where the dial is the multi-function feature and the mute is instead on top of the microphone.

**Q: how far away from mouth can it be? I need it off my desk, hanging, above the camera for teaching. 30cm? 40cm? can?  will it block PC fan noise?**
A: 30/40 cm distance from the microphone shouldn't be an issue - Elgato's recommended gap is two fists (side-by-side) apart. From the Wave Link software, you can adjust the gain to help block out background noise. 

If you have any more questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out via support on Elgato's website and they'll happily assist you.

**Q: Can I plug in multiple Wave:1 mics into the same computer? Have you tried this?**
A: I am not positive but, I think it would be on the computer side, meaning you would need to run software that would be capable of running multiple sound inputs and outputs. Voicemeter to give an example. OBS might not need to have an additional software running though??

**Q: Is this good for recording guitar?**
A: This mic is efficient enough for recording guitar and playing it live during a stream. You may need another kind of mic if you were to do more high-end recording/audio, sound, capturing/editing.
