Wavo Lav PRO
Wavo Lav PRO expands the lineup of JOBY microphones by introducing a high-quality lavalier (lapel) microphone with minimized dimensions and a PRO-grade built-in capsule.
The reduced dimensions are key for easy concealment while maintaining close positioning to the mouth allowing the capsule to deliver broadcast quality sound for demanding creators.
The omnidirectional patterns, typical for lavs, allow sound capture regardless of the direction of the head.
The intentionally long black cable is made to work in harmony with Wavo PRO for the best interview setup. The cable softness and length is also ideal to accommodate any shooting setup and avoid unwanted cabling noise.
Our Review
JOBY Wavo Lav PRO — Broadcast-Grade Lapel Mic for the Minimalist Creator
The gist: A pro-grade lavalier with a 5mm capsule small enough to hide under a collar — designed to pair with the JOBY Wavo PRO system for clean, hands-free audio on interviews and travel vlogs.
- 5mm omnidirectional capsule: Tiny enough to conceal on clothing while the omnidirectional pattern captures natural voice regardless of head movement.
- 20Hz–20kHz frequency response: Full-range audio suited for voice and ambient sound, consistent with broadcast-grade lav standards.
- 2.5m (8.2 ft) cable: Long enough to run under a shirt to a pocket-mounted wireless transmitter without bunching.
- 3.5mm TRS output: Plugs directly into the JOBY Wavo PRO or most external recorders and wireless transmitters with a standard input.
B&H Photo lists the Wavo Lav PRO as specifically designed for “broadcast-quality sound for demanding creators,” with the cable length and softness optimized to minimize handling noise on active shoots.
Best for: Creators using the JOBY Wavo PRO system who need a discreet lapel mic for interview-style or on-camera speaking. Skip it if: You need a wireless solution — this is a wired lav that pairs with a transmitter, not a standalone wireless mic. Runs ~$42 — check the current price before buying.
