VIDEO INPUTS
The Camera You Need Is in Your Pocket
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. Balance and match the image between
different phone cameras and control settings like focus, zoom, exposure,
white balance, and more.
Record Program and ISO Video
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.
Presenters can easily connect via the Google Chrome browser over Wi-Fi,
with no cables, video adaptors, or dongles needed.
AUDIO MIXING
Combine Amazing Visuals with Great Sound
The AeroCaster 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
The AeroCaster hardware features two
combo inputs for connecting XLR microphones, electronic musical
instruments, or a live sound console. 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, and 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, trigger bumpers between breaks,
or simply add some cool background music or sound effects whenever you
like.*
Music Performances
AeroCaster makes it easy for artists to
connect with fans and build new ones with engaging multi-camera
performance content. Grab shots from any angle and capture a
high-quality stereo audio mix from the master console via the AeroCaster
hardware.
Online Talk Shows
With AeroCaster, it’s never been simpler
to set up and execute an online talk show or video podcast. Elevate
your sound with pro broadcast mics, switch cameras among different
presenters with a touch, and use the powerful onboard graphics tools to
identify them with lower thirds. And with screen sharing via Google
Chrome, it’s no problem to integrate charts, videos, and other content
into your show as needed.
Live Selling
Entice buyers and pump up profits by
presenting your products with the production quality they deserve. Mount
phones to capture the perfect hero shots and demonstration views, then
switch between them live with quick screen touches. Or display studio
product stills, videos, and more by accessing content in your iPad’s
media library.
