Future-Proof Your Content
Did you miss a great reaction shot during the live show? With ISO (Isolated) recording, you capture clean, uninterrupted feeds of your individual cameras, totally separate from your main program mix.
- Clean Edits: Fix switching mistakes or create entirely new edits in Screenflow , Adobe Premiere or Final Cut Pro after the show.
- Repurpose Content: Extract high-quality, full-screen clips of specific guests for social media reels.
Simple Setup, Powerful Results
You don’t need an external hardware recorder for every camera. Wirecast handles it all directly within the software.
- Select exactly which capture cards, webcams, or NDI video sources you want to record.
- Record your main program output and multiple ISOs simultaneously with a single click.
“ISO recording is a lifesaver. Being able to go back into the raw camera files and grab alternate angles after the live broadcast is over completely elevates our final VOD uploads.”
