Wavo PRO On-Camera Shotgun Microphone
Meet JOBY Wavo Pro, the most advanced on-camera shotgun microphone on the market. Features packed with a creator-driven approach, no shooting challenge is too big for Wavo PRO. Built for storytellers, filmmakers, and expert creators, Wavo PRO is designed to pair with the latest camera hardware and brings broadcast-level audio performance to this dynamic and growing audience.
The built-in ANR (Active Noise Reduction) algorithm removes self-generated structural noise in real-time making sure you get the cleanest audio possible directly into your camera while shooting on the go. At the heart of the microphone lies the digital sound processor that can be controlled by the Wavo PRO app (iOS & Android): here you can actively shape your sound and monitor audio levels even when you're in front of the camera. Wavo PRO delivers professional content in a fun and fully intuitive package. JOBY partnered with the Rycote team to develop a brand new shock mount for the cleanest professional sound.
Our Review
JOBY Wavo PRO — On-Camera Audio That Handles the Road’s Chaos
The gist: A super-cardioid shotgun microphone with Active Noise Reduction that strips out walking vibration and camera handling noise before it hits your recording — a meaningful upgrade for travel filmmakers shooting on the move.
- Active Noise Reduction (ANR): Built-in digital processing removes self-generated structural noise from walking and camera movement in real time — the footage sounds cleaner without post-work.
- 60-hour battery: Lasts 60 hours standard (50 hours with ANR enabled), covering multiple shooting days between charges on long trips.
- Dual output: 3.5mm analog and USB-C connections mean it works with mirrorless cameras, DSLRs, and smartphones without adapters.
- Rycote shock mount: JOBY partnered with Rycote for the mount design, cutting down contact noise from handheld shooting and bumpy terrain.
The Gadgeteer calls the battery life “impressive,” noting you’ll “be able to shoot for days before you need to recharge” — a practical advantage when outlets are scarce on location.
Best for: Travel vloggers and filmmakers who need cleaner on-camera audio without a separate recorder. Skip it if: You need wireless freedom or phantom power for external condenser mics — this is a wired, self-powered shotgun only. Check the current price before buying.
