Unreliable - It Stopped working

Less than six months ago I bought a bundle during that has a small Elgato pad and this base. I have a large Elgato system and thought this would be great for my bedroom workstation. Sadly, it already has stopped working. IMHO, this is not worth it. The device no longer connects to my ipad or laptop. Initially, I was thrilled with this device as it lets me attach a xlr microphone or if one obtains an XLR adapter, a 3.5 trs mic adapter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Added this to my Stream Deck + was the best thing I could do. Being able to make the Stream Deck + an all in one for me XLR Mic, Im able to adjust my audios the way I want quickly as well as any mix for stream AND making more space on my desk by combining 2 items makes my desk look less cluttered & more room for activities. Highly recommended adding this to you Stream Deck + if you have an XLR mic you wont be sorry.
This product is great for anyone looking to add an XLR port on the back of the stream deck +.
You do need to have a Stream Deck + to use this.
It's simple and clean. This makes a lot of sense if you want a minimalist setup because, with Stream Deck + and XLR Dock, you can control your audio all in one device.
Wave link 2.0 with Voice focus is the best noise removal I ever used. This XLR dock will work with any mic you want to put with it. I used the Wave DX and SM7B and I didn't have any issues.
At the time of writing this review, you can't use Wave XLR and XLR Dock at the same time. So if you're planning to use your Wave XLR still then just stick with that.
So since it's a Wave XLR on the back of your Stream Deck + you will get
-Clipguard so you don't clip your microphone
-Wave link 2.0 with all its features for audio mixing, monitoring, and adding VSTs to every source ( been a user of Wave link for 3 years now and elgato is always adding features.)
-75DB of gain even the most gain-heavy mics will work.
If you have or planning on getting a Stream Deck + this is well worth looking into
Using the XLR Dock in combination with the Stream Deck+ has completely overhauled my audio setup for content creation and streaming! It's replaced 3 separate items i was using previously into 1 neat and powerful package! Plus combined with the powerful Wave Link Software it's honestly a Game Changer! Love the XLR Dock!
I’ve been using the XLR dock as my introduction to XLR microphones and have never been happier. Paired with my Wave DX, the XLR dock is so easy to get set up and use. It also serves as a headphone jack and with my PC at the range it is, it helps having something closer.
If you’re purchasing a Stream Deck + and you have an XLR mic… get this dock! It saves a ton of space in my desk compared to having a separate interface. This was something I didn’t know I needed. A must have for stream deck lovers!
If I could only have two Elgato productions it would be the stream deck + with the XLR Dock. The functionality it provides with such a small footprint on desk space is unmatched and only having one cable going to the PC instead of two saves much-needed USB slots.
Replaced my Go XLR mini with this as I was having a lot of issues with it and I’m so glad I made the switch!! Paired with the stream deck, it creates such a seamless and space saving audio interface. Audio is crisp and the elgato wave app allows me to adjust EQ easily. Would love to see a model with 2-3 inputs but really I have 0 criticisms. Perfect for content creators.
