ADVANCED AUDIO ROUTING
Wave Link can be used to create advanced setups for bringing additional audio into a meeting or call such as music or sound effects.

EXAMPLE USE CASE
Julian, an executive at a company, is hosting a town hall meeting. He starts the meeting 10 minutes early, expecting his employees to join as they can. He would like to play some relaxing music in the background to set the mood as employees join the call.
Wave link can be used to bring music and voice together to create a seamless experience for the meeting participants. Fade the music out with a simple click and you are ready to start the meeting.
HOW DOES WAVE LINK WORK?
Wave Link features up to 9 inputs, such as audio software like Spotify, voice chat programs like Slack or Zoom, Sound effects, games, web browsers, and more. One of these inputs is occupied by the Wave microphone. These inputs get routed to two outputs - The monitor mix, which is indicated by the headset symbol, and the stream mix, which is used in the voice chat software. This gives independent control over what the listener hears, and what the call hears.
