Digitale camera-microfoon Joby Wavo Plus

Wavo Plus is a wired digital camera microphone designed to deliver high-quality audio for creators using compact premium vlogging cameras. It provides real-time monitoring via a built-in 3.5 mm headphone input and offers features such as a 100 Hz high-pass filter, -10 dB safety track, auto-power mode and a USB Type-C port for direct connection to Mac or PC for voiceover recording.

Advantages

The Wavo Plus combines a 3.5 mm headphone monitoring input with a convenient volume control so creators can hear background noise and adjust levels while shooting. A 100 Hz high-pass filter reduces low-frequency rumble for cleaner recordings, the -10 dB safety track preserves loud peaks, and the second safety track provides a backup. Auto-power sensing turns the microphone on and off with the camera to save battery, and an LED indicator shows battery status. USB Type-C connectivity enables direct digital recording to computers.

Suitable for

• Vlogging with compact premium cameras
• On-camera interviews and run-and-gun shooting
• Voiceovers and desktop recording via USB Type-C
• Content creators monitoring live audio during shoots
