GO:PODCAST is an integrated livestreaming system with the perfect blend of superior quality and intuitive operation. Using the powerful mobile app and versatile USB microphone, creating high-quality streams is simple-even for beginners. From intimate Just Chatting sessions to interviews, demonstrations, and mobile gaming streams, GO:PODCAST helps elevate your online presence with engaging video and crystal-clear sound.
Level up your content.
High production quality is vital to growing your audience and gaining new subscribers. GO:PODCAST helps you deliver pro results in every stream, backed by advanced features derived from Roland's professional AV products. This complete system provides the foundation you need to create compelling content that will keep your fans coming back for more.
Fast and easy setup.
Great streams don't require complicated setups and expensive gear. GO:PODCAST lets you start streaming today with the iOS and Android mobile devices you already own. Connect the included microphone to your smartphone via USB-C and plug headphones into the stereo mini jack for monitoring. Then open the GO:PODCAST app to set up your camera and directly connect to YouTube, Twitch, Facebook, and other streaming platforms.
Versatile camera capture.
The flexible GO:PODCAST app supports a variety of video setups to meet your streaming needs. Dial in your self-facing camera for solo sessions. Or simultaneously use the front and back cameras on an iOS device to capture you and a discussion partner. For dynamic demonstrations, seamlessly integrate a second mobile device as a wireless camera using the companion Roland Satellite Camera app. And if you're an iOS mobile gamer, you can share your screen to entertain your audience with gripping gameplay. It's even possible to record camera views separately for offline content creation and editing.
Pro production tools.
The GO:PODCAST app is filled with powerful tools to boost your production quality. Use the step-by-step wizard to add a range of video options, including split-screen views and picture-in-picture effects. Import graphics for titles and lower thirds to achieve a polished, professional aesthetic. And personalize your streams with images, background music, and video content stored on your mobile device.
High-quality audio hub.
Even if your video looks great, viewers will quickly tune out if the audio is subpar. The GO:PODCAST microphone features a full-range condenser design, allowing you to capture voices and other sources with clear, warm, and articulate sound. There's a convenient dual-function volume knob for the mic and headphone jack, plus an audio meter for setting optimum levels. The built-in stand provides easy desk positioning and a stable, isolated platform that helps keep the sound free of low-frequency rumble.
Optimize your sound with multiple polar patterns.
The GO:PODCAST mic includes four polar pattern options, an advanced feature not typically found on USB mics for mobile devices. Cardioid rejects rear sounds, making it the best choice for solo speaking. Omni picks up sound from every direction, which is ideal when you want to capture all the sound in a room. Stereo is perfect for recording two people, and it's also great for capturing the depth and richness of an acoustic guitar or another live musical instrument. There's also a switched stereo option to flip the left/right audio to match your video image if needed.

Q & A
Reviews
Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
