WHAT A SECOND CAMERA CHANGES Interviews look better with more angles. Podcasts come alive when you can cut between faces. Tutorials are easier to follow when one camera shows you and one or two more show the details. Multi camera recording has always been possible with a few phones and a lot of patience, and every device you add costs you more of it. Unison is a Multi Camera Recorder that removes the patience. ONE CONTROL, EVERY CAMERA You should never have to touch more than one device. Connect your iPhone, iPad or Mac, pick one as your master, and from there start, pause, resume and stop every recording with a single tap, even two rooms away. No walking between devices mid-take, no counting down out loud, no missed starts. EVERY CLIP, ALREADY TOGETHER Each device records its own video, then sends it to your master device. When you're done, everything is in one place and already in sync, ready to go straight on your timeline. No collecting files one device at a time, no lining up clips before you can start editing. Whether it's interviews, podcasts, vlogs, events or tutorials, and whether you're filming for your followers on social media, for your fans, or only for a select audience, Unison makes multi-camera recording effortless: every angle captured in a single take, and less time spent editing it. WHAT UNISON DOES - Multi camera video recording from two or more Apple devices simultaneously - Every clip sent to your master device, already in sync and ready to edit - Remote control of every connected camera from a single screen - A multicam setup built from the Apple devices you already own, nothing to buy HOW UNISON IS BUILT - No sign-in or account required - Your recordings stay on your devices - Clean, intuitive interface Unison is the Multi Camera Recorder you were missing. Just your Apple devices, working together. Easy to start. Designed to stay simple. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
