Compact and mighty, the Boss GCS-8 Gigcaster Livestreaming Audio Mixer is designed as an all-in-one command centre for musicians, offering live streamers, content creators and podcasters the ability to manage both audio and video in one convenient location.
Despite its compact desktop interface, the GCS-8 is packed with advanced features that provide premium audio connectivity and live operation via hands-on controls and a vibrant colour touchscreen. This allows users to adjust their performance on the go in real time.
The mixer allows for connecting your guitar or bass to access top-of-the-line GT amps and effects. Additionally, the VE series provides studio-grade processing to shape your vocals when using a microphone. You can even incorporate another instrument through the stereo line input and mix up to five sources, including background music and audio from a remote guest or student, as you stream.
The Gigcaster 8 is customizable and offers external control support, making it an indispensable tool for musicians, podcasters, remote educators, and anyone creating content focused on music.
Key Features:
- Sublime Guitar and Bass Sounds - Stream and play impressive guitar and bass tones with Gigcaster 8 without external processing. Just plug in and rock with premium amps and effects from the GT-1000. Enjoy 100 preset patches and 200 user locations for custom setups. Control hands-free with footswitches, expression pedals, and GA-FC or GA-FC EX.
- Perform with Microphones and Other Instruments - Gigcaster 8 has inputs for additional gear and playing with other musicians. Two preamps with a wide dynamic range and phantom power support provide broadcast-quality XLR mic sounds. Use the stereo line input for instruments like keyboards or drum machines. VE series offers vocal effects with harmonies that follow a set key. Transformer effects change the sound of your voice. Console effects enhance connected sources.
- Pro Multi-Channel Audio Mixing - Gigcaster 8 offers pro-level mixing and audio routing features with three analogue input channels, dedicated stereo channels for Bluetooth and USB audio, and sound-shaping options for each mixer channel. Communicate with multiple computer audio channels over USB, allowing for flexibility in streaming and remote work with guests, DAW tracks, and game audio.
- Compact and Powerful - Gigcaster 8 is compact but packed with creative tools for real-time use. Features include Bluetooth for playing music from mobile devices and a ducking function for lowering music volume when speaking. The Gigcaster 8 App allows for triggering sound effects, sample loops, and backing tracks with touch commands. There are 64 on-demand sounds available through eight pads and eight pad banks, all easily customizable and organized through the app.
- Customisable Workflow - The Gigcaster 8 offers customizable features for any streaming style, including eight onscreen effect pads arranged into eight banks for quick sound changes from the touch display.
