Whether you're creating tailored feeds for different regions, languages, or digital platforms, Live Studio gives you the tools to remix live content in real-time with flexibility, precision, and minimal resources. Here's a full overview of how to use Live Rooms inside Live Studio.
What Is Live Studio For?
Live Studio is specifically designed to enable the localization or re-production of existing live broadcasts—often known as alternate broadcasts.
To support this, it offers a comprehensive toolkit, including:
- Smooth switching between multiple live video sources
- Real-time streaming to a wide range of digital platforms
- Support for remote guest participation with audio/video contributions
- Scene management with precise, pixel-perfect overlays
- Automated subtitle generation from live audio
- Integration with third-party HTML graphics systems like Singular.live
All of these features work together to deliver efficient, adaptable, and high-quality alternate live productions.
It can function independently or as a companion to Channel Studio, where live streams are programmed as part of 24/7 or pop-up channels.
