Product Information

Gigcaster 5 can also communicate with multiple computer audio channels over USB, providing lots of flexibility for different streaming applications and working with remote guests, DAW music tracks, game audio, and more. Gigcaster 5 is a powerful all-in-one audio command center purpose-built for musicians who livestream and create audio and video content. With versatile preset patches and user locations for storing custom-built setups, you’ll have no shortage of inspiration. Delivering all the tools you need for professional sound in a single desktop interface, along with quick-access live control via faders, knobs, eight assignable pads, and a vivid color touchscreen.

Gigcaster 5 works as a high-quality 16x12 USB audio interface for recording streams and full song productions in a DAW. Use the powerful effects preset library to quickly access studio-grade processing for any connected source. From time to time I think of upgrading my cheap behringer mixer to something better, especially because it gives me unwanted noise.The Gigcaster 8 has eight touch pads (again, a coincidence, I’m sure) to trigger sounds and effects, while on the 5, the same functionality is controlled via the touchscreen after pressing the ‘Effects’ button.

This lets you use the built-in internal microphones to communicate through the headphones without going through the main output, a feature that is very handy for live radio or streaming environments.

Or use Gigcaster 5 and its latency-free effects as a multi-channel front end for recording tracks and building songs in your favorite music production software.
