Roland improves the quality of livestream productions with three new solutions

Roland develops AeroCaster, UVC-02 Web Presentation Dock and the CGM-30 Gooseneck micro CGM-30 with the aim of offering simple solutions that bring greater production values to Livestreaming applications.

AeroCaster is an innovative and easy-to-use system that allows anyone to create a wireless multi-camera broadcast 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 live broadcast application, from online talk shows and music performances to live commerce, distance learning and more.

AeroCaster allows users to switch wireless camera feeds from smartphones and tablets, plus screen sharing from computers and mobile devices. The system supports up to four wireless devices at once, along with the host iPad camera. The Roland advanced video technology is also available for adding graphics, titles, video clips, photos and more. Operation is fast and intuitive, with a direct streaming connection to YouTube, Facebook Live, Twitch et custom RTMP channels over Wi-Fi or 4G/5G cellular networks.

UVC-02

Using web conferencing platforms to conduct business has become commonplace. But the quality of webcams and microphones built into computers leaves much to be desired. The Roland UVC-02 web presentation dock helps users bridge that gap by providing a simple and affordable solution to enhance virtual presentations with higher quality audio-visual equipment and more control.

UVC-02 is presented as a desktop control centre that allows the user to connect a high-quality HDMI camera, professional 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 convenient knobs and switches, providing quick hardware control of levels, audio and video muting, sound effects and more.

CGM-30 Gooseneck Microphone

Le CGM-30 gooseneck microphone by Roland plugs directly into the XLR input of the UVC-02 web presentation base, providing a high quality desktop solution that eliminates the need for an external microphone and stand. It also works with the Roland VR-1HD AV broadcast mixer and any other product with an XLR microphone input with phantom power on the top panel.
