Key Features
Insta360 Wave AI Conference Speakerphone
Insta360 Wave integrates microphone, speaker, recording and AI meeting functions within one compact desktop system. It is designed to improve voice clarity while reducing the need for separate conference microphones, speakers and recording devices.
The vertically elevated microphone design keeps its voice-capture system away from the table surface, while the retractable body reveals a touchscreen for controlling audio, recording and meeting functions.
Eight-Microphone Array with 5-Metre Pickup
Eight MEMS microphones form a 3D array capable of capturing voices from up to 5 metres away. Its 48kHz sampling rate records detailed speech for meetings, interviews, podcasts and other professional applications.
Automatic Gain Control balances participants speaking at different volumes and distances, while full-duplex audio allows both sides of a conversation to speak and be heard simultaneously.
Actual pickup performance depends on room size, background noise, acoustics, speaker position and the selected pickup pattern.
AI Noise Reduction and Dereverberation
The integrated AI processor identifies and suppresses more than 300 types of common environmental noise. This can reduce distractions caused by keyboards, air-conditioning systems, nearby conversations, traffic and other background sounds.
Automatic Echo Cancellation helps prevent remote audio from feeding back into the meeting, while AI-powered dereverberation reduces the hollow sound commonly experienced in rooms with hard surfaces.
Users can select Noise Reduction Mode for clearer speech or Original Sound Mode when a more natural audio response is required.
Five Directional Pickup Patterns
Wave provides five pickup patterns for different working environments:
- Omnidirectional captures voices from every direction for round-table discussions and group meetings
- Cardioid focuses on sound from the front for online meetings, podcasts and livestreams
- Supercardioid provides narrower front-facing pickup for noisy desks and individual workstations
- Figure-of-eight captures sound from the front and rear for two-person interviews
- Stereo records separate left and right channels for music, performances and immersive audio
Stereo Mode requires a USB connection to a computer with Wave selected as the audio input source.
Built-In Speaker for Full-Duplex Calls
The voice-optimised 5W speaker provides clear playback for conference calls and spoken content. Full-duplex processing allows remote and in-room participants to communicate naturally without repeatedly cutting each other off.
The speaker has a maximum rated sound pressure level of 91dB SPL at 0.5 metres under the manufacturer’s specified test conditions.
Local Meeting Recording
Wave includes 32GB of built-in storage and can store up to approximately 1,000 hours of MP3 audio under Insta360’s specified recording conditions. Meetings can be recorded directly without relying entirely on a separate computer or mobile device.
It can also record compatible system audio, helping preserve both local voices and the remote side of a meeting within the recording.
Available recording time varies according to the selected audio format, recording quality and remaining storage capacity.
Five-Minute AI Pre-Recording
AI Pre-Recording continually maintains a temporary audio buffer. When recording is activated, Wave can preserve the preceding five minutes, helping recover an important discussion that began before the user manually pressed the record button.
Users should follow applicable privacy, consent and workplace policies before recording any meeting, interview or conversation.
AI Transcription in Over 99 Languages
The Insta360 InSight platform can convert recorded conversations into searchable transcripts across more than 99 supported languages. Automatic language recognition can assist with multilingual meetings, while voiceprint identification can label recurring speakers.
A custom glossary allows organisations to add company names, technical terminology, product models and industry-specific phrases for more accurate transcription.
Internet access, an Insta360 account and cloud processing may be required for certain functions. Transcription accuracy varies with language, accent, speech clarity, background noise and microphone placement.
AI Meeting Assistant
Insta360 InSight can organise meeting content into structured notes, summaries and action items. Users can review recordings, locate important sections and ask follow-up questions based on the recorded conversation.
Meeting summaries and recordings can be shared through an on-screen QR code. Some advanced AI functions, additional transcription minutes and customised templates require a paid InSight subscription.
Touchscreen Meeting Control
A 1.82-inch touchscreen beneath the speakerphone provides direct access to recording, playback, volume, microphone, connection and AI functions. The body can be raised during operation and collapsed when the touchscreen is not required.
This design keeps essential meeting controls accessible without requiring users to continually switch between applications on their computer.
USB, Bluetooth and Wireless Dongle Connectivity
Wave can connect to compatible computers through USB-C, Bluetooth or the included wireless dongle. This supports flexible deployment across fixed meeting rooms, shared workspaces and individual desks.
It is compatible with Windows 10 or later and macOS 12 or later. Mobile management supports Android 10 or later, iOS 12 or later and iPadOS 12 or later.
Platform compatibility, available controls and audio behaviour may vary according to the operating system, conferencing application and connection method.
Insta360 WaveLink with Link 2
A compatible Insta360 Link 2 webcam can be mounted on top of Wave to form an integrated audio and video conferencing system. Wave uses direction-of-arrival detection to identify where speech is coming from, allowing Link 2 to switch its focus between speakers.
Insta360 Link 2 is sold separately unless included in the selected WaveLink Bundle.
Multi-Device Room Coverage
Insta360 plans to support wireless linking of up to three Wave devices for wider audio coverage in larger spaces. As the official product page still identifies this as a future over-the-air update, availability should be confirmed against the current firmware before deployment.
Additional Wave units are sold separately.
Up to 12 Hours of Talk Time
The integrated 9800mAh battery provides up to approximately 12 hours of talk time under Insta360’s test conditions. A complete recharge takes approximately five hours using a compatible power source.
Actual operating time depends on connection type, speaker volume, touchscreen use, wireless functions, recording activity, temperature and battery condition.
