Livestreaming has become incredibly popular in recent years. People of all kinds are sharing their talents for video games, makeup, cooking, animal training, and the ever-popular battle royale, Fortnite. Getting in on the streaming action usually involves buying a slew of expensive A/V equipment and a beefy computer, but what if there were a better way? The GO:LIVECAST Smartphone Streaming Studio from Roland makes it easy for creators of all kinds to share their content right from a smartphone or tablet. Simply plug it into your device and gain hands-on control over your camera, sound effects, video effects, external microphones, and more.

The GO:LIVECAST is super simple to use. Just plug in your smartphone, connect your headphones, and you're ready to go! If you don't have any external gear, you can still stream, thanks to the built-in mic that delivers high-quality audio with optional reverb. For more impressive audio, plug in a mic, guitar, or synth into the combination TRS/XLR input. The GO:LIVECAST has an intuitive control layout. With a single touch, you can start your broadcast, play music, launch sound effects, and more. The two volume knobs and a mic-mute button give you easy control over the mic and media levels.
When they designed the GO:LIVECAST, Roland made sure that all streamers could use it on their favorite streaming platforms. No matter where you stream, you can use the Roland GO:LIVECAST because it's compatible with Twitch, Facebook Live, YouTube, and other major platforms. If you use multiple platforms, the GO:LIVECAST app has it handled.

When you set up your phone or tablet for your stream, the GO:LIVECAST allows you to select the front or rear camera within the app. If you don't like the lighting or need to soften how you look, you can add one of the pre-loaded skin filters. The interface automatically adjusts your stream to portrait or landscape mode, depending on the positioning of your device, while in-camera mirroring makes sure that your audience sees the correct left/right perspective. Think you'll need even more visual variation? You're in luck: the GO:LIVECAST lets you add a second smartphone camera via Wi-Fi. To switch views, simply hit the camera switch button on your interface.
