Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

RØDECaster Video combines video switching, scene building, streaming, recording, and audio mixing in one production console. Four HDMI and two USB-C UVC inputs can feed a six-input setup, with configurable preview, program, or multiview HDMI outputs. Build and recall seven customizable scenes from the touchscreen and rotary encoder, then add transitions, picture-in-picture, media, graphics, and chroma keying. Two Neutrik combo inputs and per-channel APHEX processing keep microphone and source routing inside the same production workflow for podcasts, interviews, studio productions, and livestreams.
