Roland VRC-01 AeroCaster AV Mixer B-Ware

Why B-goods: Slight signs of use.

Free yourself from the complicated setups and cable clutter of connecting cameras, computers and switchers for a multi-camera livestream. With the revolutionary Roland AeroCaster system, all you need is an iPad and a couple of smartphones to wirelessly switch between video signals in minutes and stream everything live to your favorite streaming platform.

AeroCaster is the simple and affordable solution for wireless multi-camera setups in professional production quality. The groundbreaking system leverages the AV power of mobile devices that everyone carries with them every day, enabling entirely new possibilities for creative live streaming - from online talk shows and concerts to live shopping, distance learning and more.

AeroCaster is a powerful and versatile AV switching system that is extremely easy to set up. It only takes a few moments to use AeroCaster to stream images from multiple cameras and high-quality audio to YouTube, Facebook, Twitch and RTMP channels over Wi-Fi or 4G/5G. The AeroCaster system includes the AeroCaster LIVE app for iPad, the AeroCaster VRC-01 hardware control surface, which also acts as an audio interface, and the AeroCaster Camera app for iOS and Android mobile devices. It also supports the sharing of computer screens and mobile devices in BYOD applications.

Thanks to the completely wireless connection, you can use available tripods at any time to position smartphones - even in places where a conventional camera has difficulty reaching. Inexpensive gimbal mounts can even be used to professionally stabilize mobile recordings. The limits are determined solely by the range of your Wi-Fi network.

Once you have connected the mobile devices to AeroCaster LIVE, you can access them remotely via the app to make a variety of camera settings. Coordinate images from multiple smartphone cameras and control functions such as focus, zoom, exposure, white balance and more.

AeroCaster Live offers a simple solution for sharing screens from computers and mobile devices. Using Wi-Fi, presenters can connect quickly and easily via the Google Chrome browser without the need for cables, video adapters or dongles.

With the AeroCaster hardware interface, you have all your audio inputs and outputs under control, just like a compact broadcast mixer. The controls are so simple and direct that a single person can do both video switching and audio mixing at once. No previous AV production experience is necessary.
