RECnGO is the ultimate live streaming studio app for video content creators and streamers. It replaces a complicated, expensive (and unnecessary!) live streaming kit and lets you stream with your mobile devices in studio quality. Finally, an effortless streaming experience to Facebook, Youtube, Twitch, TikTok, your website, or any custom RTMP destinations–it’s perfect if you’re a content creator, podcaster, sports club, or videographer for social and corporate events. - LIVE STREAM TO FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE, TWITCH, OR CUSTOM RTMP Reach your audience on whatever platform they hang out on–set up and start streaming in minutes! - PERSONALIZE/BRAND YOUR LIVE STREAMS OR PODCASTS Insert logos, overlays, speaker names, and other visuals during your live stream–giving your production an instant “It’s like a TV studio!” wow factor - USE MULTIPLE CAMERA ANGLES FOR A SHOW-STOPPING STREAM Use as many devices and camera angles as you need–you can link up to 12 phones and/or tablets into a live streaming chain. For a more immersive experience audiences love, switch between camera angles often during streaming (vs. making a single-camera yawn-inducing production). - EDIT SOUND LIVE WITH THE STUDIO’S BUILT-IN AUDIO MIXER Adjust and balance the sound during your live stream for each device independently from the studio device’s audio mixer–this is huge. When you see people chatting next to a device you’re using to record or live stream, you can mute the mic on it from where you sit! Shhh! - USE WHATEVER LENS YOU PREFER (FRONT, BACK, ULTRA-WIDE) Switch between the front and back cameras without walking up to the device during your streams–handy during live Q&As when the mic is handed to someone in the audience - ADJUST WHITE BALANCE Individually, on all cameras–perfect when the sun decides to come out/hide and the video suddenly goes cold/warm as your stream goes on - USE THE FLASH WHEN YOU NEED IT Turn the flash on and off independently for each device–ideal when you're streaming on cloudy days and the room becomes darker... and what was a bright spot when you set up is now dark - ZOOM IN AND OUT FROM YOUR STUDIO DEVICE Individually, on all cameras–insanely useful when streaming whiteboard presentations with ridiculously small letters even the audience in the room can’t see (... imagine the people watching the steam!) - ADJUST LATENCY WHEN YOU NEED TO Adjust your external camera’s latency settings according to the quality of your WiFi connection as you're streaming–perfect for balancing the data flow (audio & video) from your individual cameras - ENJOY AUTOMATIC STREAM BITRATE BALANCING It’s streaming magic in the background–a generous 10-second buffer zone irons out sudden changes in your upload speed during your live stream - LIVE STREAM, RECORD, OR BOTH Record your live stream and save it on your local device–edit and repurpose later to get the most ROI for your efforts - MANAGE YOUR DEVICES REMOTELY Orchestrate your entire stream from inside the intuitive live video studio app while sitting down at the back of the room with a coffee–it’s that easy to use - MINIMAL LEARNING CURVE When you’re stuck or need help, navigate to the tutorial section or contact the live video support team for a solution. Grab a seat in this powerful live video production studio and enjoy pro live streaming and video content creation–with your mobile devices.
