Roland BRIDGE CAST ONE Stream Mixer Released

Roland BRIDGE CAST ONE Features

Roland BRIDGE CAST ONE is the newest, most compact gaming audio mixer in the BRIDGE CAST series, allowing you to enjoy games and voice chat with higher quality sound and live stream your gameplay.

A single large knob makes it easy to adjust chat and game volume while playing. Despite its small size, it also features a high-gain microphone preamp and powerful DSP audio processing, just like its predecessor.

It doesn’t take up much space on your gaming desk and is easy to carry, so you can enjoy excellent sound while playing games or streaming on your travels. BRIDGE CAST ONE now supports 7.1ch virtual surround when connected to a PC via USB. You can enjoy immersive gameplay with a wide game sound.

In addition, it comes with a voice transformer function that lets you become a character in the game and enjoy the game. By using a dedicated app, you can add royalty-free background music and sound effects to liven up your broadcast.

Roland BRIDGE CAST ONE Audio features for professional quality sound

Equipped with a high-quality microphone preamplifier that enables professional microphone connection

BRIDGE CAST ONE allows you to connect a professional microphone (dynamic/condenser) equipped with an XLR terminal, allowing you to enjoy conversations and commentary during gameplay with clear and dynamic sound. Since the main unit has a built-in high-performance preamp, no additional equipment is required even when using a microphone that tends to lack gain.

In addition, BRIDGE CAST ONE now comes with a microphone rehearsal function that allows you to set up microphones efficiently, making it easy for even beginners to set up the microphones.

High quality microphone processing and virtual surround sound

BRIDGE CAST ONE is equipped with various audio processing functions that improve the sound quality of the streamer’s talk and chat. In addition to the equalizer and compressor that are installed in a general audio mixer, it is equipped with a low-cut filter, a de-esser that makes it easier to hear “S” sounds, a noise suppressor, and a reverb.

In addition, “BRIDGE CAST ONE” is equipped with a new 7.1ch virtual surround function that expands the sound of PC games when connected via USB (PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch do not support USB virtual surround). You can enjoy three-dimensional and immersive sound with headphones. These functions are processed by the hardware DSP, so the computer’s processing power can be focused on games and live streaming without putting a strain on the PC.

Dual audio buses allow independent mixing of monitor and broadcast signals

BRIDGE CAST ONE is equipped with two mixing buses. These dual audio buses allow you to set the volume of the microphone audio used by the streamer, voice chat with gamers and teammates, game sounds, and background music independently for the streamer’s monitor and the broadcast destination.

The volume of the sound the streamer wants to hear and the sound that viewers can easily hear can be adjusted separately, allowing streamers to deliver high-quality broadcasts that entertain viewers while allowing them to concentrate on the game.

Expand your audio tools with dedicated apps

By using the “BRIDGE CAST app” (free) for the BRIDGE CAST series, you can fine-tune the microphone and audio output parameters, as well as the GAME EQ to suit the game title. If necessary, you can change the LED color and the assignment of hardware functions such as buttons and knobs, and you can also save and load BRIDGE CAST ONE settings for multiple games and broadcasts.

“BGM CAST” app that provides copyright-free background music is available

By simply registering for the series-exclusive “BRIDGE CAST app” and a “Roland Cloud” account, users can use “BGM CAST.” BGM CAST allows users to use royalty-free background music and sound effects that are updated monthly. By using “BGM CAST,” users can automatically select and play royalty-free background music to match the “mood” they select, and assign sound effects to the three buttons on “BRIDGE CAST ONE” to liven up their broadcasts.

If you sign up for a Roland Account, you can use dozens of background music and 16 sound effects for free. Furthermore, if you sign up for the paid Roland Cloud Core plan or higher, you can use over thousands of background music and over 100 sound effects.
