◎Enhanced sound
With BRIDGE CAST, you can use broadcast-grade dynamic and condenser microphones—essential for professional streamers' audio setups—for conversations and commentary while playing games.

It features a built-in high-performance microphone preamplifier that enables clear and dynamic sound like that of a professional streamer. With a support level of up to 75dB, there is no need for additional accessories when using an XLR connection.

It features a powerful headphone amplifier capable of driving high-impedance headphones favored by professionals, resulting in exceptional sound quality during monitoring. Furthermore, the headphone jack supports headset microphones, allowing for easy setup with just a single cable.

◎ Mix for monitoring + Mix for distribution
The BRIDGE CAST features two built-in sound mixers, allowing you to independently configure the sound for streaming and your own monitoring.

You can adjust the volume of microphone input audio, team conversations, game sounds, and background music to your liking. For monitoring, adjust the sounds you want to hear most to gain an advantage in gameplay. Furthermore, creating audio that's easy to listen to for streaming will help you connect with your fans.

In addition to a headphone output for direct sound control, the BRIDGE CAST features a line output that can be used to connect external speakers. Each output's volume can be easily adjusted individually with separate knobs, even during gameplay. Furthermore, it includes a knob to control the volume directed towards your streaming audience.

Transform into new characters by altering your voice using the same processing techniques as Roland's renowned Voice Transformers VT series. Adjust the pitch and formant to portray different ages, genders, and even the voices of wild beasts and aliens.

It also features audio processing functions such as EQ and compressor to help improve the quality of your voice. A low-cut filter softens plosive sounds including "pa," "pu," and "tsu," and a de-esser makes sounds with strong "s" sounds easier to listen to.

A noise suppressor reduces distracting ambient noise, while reverb adds spatial depth to your voice. The built-in hardware DSP handles the audio processing load, allowing your computer to dedicate its processing power to gaming and streaming.

Customize your gaming environment with the BRIDGE CAST app. The BRIDGE CAST app, dedicated software that works in conjunction with your hardware, allows you to change microphone and audio parameters, adjust GAME EQ presets, and configure other detailed settings. You can also reassign functions to hardware such as buttons and knobs, and save and load complete sets of BRIDGE CAST settings for different games or streams, as needed.
