Roland, a leading manufacturer of professional audio, video, and electronic musical instrument gear, announces three new products to improve livestream productions.
AeroCaster
AeroCaster is designed to create a wireless multi-camera streaming setup using mobile devices. The system consists of the AeroCaster VRC-01 hardware control surface and audio interface, the AeroCaster LIVE app for iPad, and the AeroCaster Camera app for iOS and Android mobile devices. “Leveraging the convenience and mobility of wireless connectivity, AeroCaster opens up a new world of creative possibilities for any livestreaming application,” the announcement explains.
AeroCaster lets users switch wireless camera feeds from smartphones and tablets, plus screen shares from computers and mobile devices. The system supports up to four wireless devices at once, along with the camera on the host iPad. Roland’s advanced video technology is also available for adding graphics, titles, video clips, photos, and more. Operation is designed to be intuitive with a direct streaming connection to YouTube, Facebook Live, Twitch, and custom RTMP channels over Wi-Fi or 4G/5G cellular networks.
UVC-02 Web Presentation Dock
Using web conferencing platforms can be hindered by the quality of built-in computer webcams and microphones. The UVC-02 Web Presentation Dock is designed as a solution to improve virtual presentations with better quality audio/visual gear and more control.
The compact UVC-02 is a desktop control hub that allows the user to connect a high-quality HDMI camera, pro microphone, and other audio sources and send them directly to computer-based meeting and streaming platforms via a single USB cable. It also includes a panel full of hands-on knobs and switches, providing quick hardware control of levels, audio and video muting, sound effects, and more.
CGM-30 Gooseneck Microphone
The CGM-30 Gooseneck Microphone plugs directly into the XLR input on the UVC-02 Web Presentation Dock, designed to eliminate the need for an external mic and stand. It also works with the Roland VR-1HD AV Streaming Mixer and any other product with a phantom-powered XLR microphone input on the top panel.
