The Camera You Need Is in Your Pocket

In fact, you don’t always need expensive DSLRs and camcorders for everyday video productions. With the AeroCaster system, you can take full advantage of the amazing cameras in the latest phones and use them as high-quality inputs for your livestream.

Easy Video Capture with Wireless Freedom

With all-wireless connectivity, you can use readily available stationary mounts to put the phones in places where it’s difficult to use a traditional camera. And with affordable gimbal mounts, you’re able to capture stabilized mobile shots from as far as your wireless network will reach.

Fine-Tune All Your Cameras from One Place

Once mobile devices are connected to AeroCaster LIVE, you have remote access to all their advanced camera settings from within the app. Furthermore, balance and match the image between different cameras and control settings like focus, zoom, exposure, white balance, and more

Record Program and ISO Video using AeroCaster VRC-01

Whether livestreaming or working offline, the flexible AeroCaster system lets you easily record productions for later editing and distribution. Capture the combined program output on the iPad and isolated video feeds on each phone. Then wirelessly transfer the phone videos to the iPad and put all the files together for post-production work in the app of your choice.

Wireless Screen Sharing with Google Chrome

AeroCaster LIVE also provides a simple solution for screen sharing from computers and mobile devices. Additionally, presenters can easily connect via the Google Chrome browser over Wi-Fi, with no cables, video adaptors, or dongles needed.

Combine Amazing Visuals with Great Sound

The AeroCaster VRC-01 hardware interface handles all your audio input and output needs with the power of a small broadcast mixer. Using simple and straightforward controls, one person can manage video switching and audio mixing all at once—with no prior production experience required.

Hear What Your Audience Hears

With the ability to monitor your audio mix through headphones or connected monitor speakers, you’ll know that your livestream viewers are hearing the content you’re delivering.

Stream with Top Audio Quality thanks to AeroCaster VRC-01

The Roland AeroCaster VRC-01 hardware features two combo inputs for connecting equipment. And with a wide range of onboard effects, your talent will always sound their best. The headphones jack supports a feed from a headset mic or the mic on your earbuds for a third vocal source. Also, you can bring in additional audio from a mobile device or music player via the 3.5 mm stereo input.

Play Your Theme Music

From within the AeroCaster LIVE app, you have integrated access to media content stored on iCloud Drive. Play your opening theme to start the stream. Also, trigger bumpers between breaks, or simply add some cool background music or sound effects whenever you like.
