Roland's BRIDE Cast is an all-in-one solution for your live streaming audio, combining comprehensive, practical and, most importantly, professional features in a compact, rugged package that fits nicely into any gaming setup. On board the customisable desktop hub are features for creating parallel audio mixes, vocal transformation effects, playback options, SoundFX and various connections for a wide range of devices - all clearly laid out and easily accessible, so you can keep a cool head even in the heat of the moment.

What's under the hood

?Thanks to the 32-bit Hardware DSP, all the computer's resources are used optimally for gaming and streaming. So it's no problem to create separate mixes for streamers and audiences, use voice-changing effects from the Roland VT series and enhance the audio signal with integrated effects such as EQ, compressor, de-esser and Reverb.

In addition, five customisable Game EQ presets are available to optimise gaming performance. This allows you to emphasise important sound elements in the game and, if necessary, outperform the competition. Identify and boost frequencies or sound levels to better perceive elements such as enemy footsteps in FPS games. Of course, profiles can be saved and recalled with a hotkey during gameplay.

Versatile connectionsTo

maintain versatility at all times and allow users to stream more conveniently and professionally, Bridge Cast can be paired with a variety of devices. Whether you are a Mac or Windows user, prefer to use a smartphone or even a Sony PlayStation 5 games console, the choice is yours. On the back you'll find all the important inputs/outputs, including an XLR input for your microphone. Thanks to phantom power, even high-quality large-diaphragm condenser microphones can be used.

MoreFrom the

second quarter of 2023, the Roland Coud - and therefore also various royalty-free tracks - will be available for use in your streams. Together with the Bridge Cast app, they can be easily integrated into your projects. This not only makes it easier to get started in the world of streaming, but also inspires new approaches.

Do you like to be more individual on the go? Change Bridge Cast's removable front panel and give it a new look with the downloadable skin templates (see the manufacturer's website for more information).

You can also customise the LED colours on the four knobs to match the overall look.
