Going Live Has Never Been Easier

With the rise of livestreaming, expressing yourself online is simple and easy. Mackie’s M-Caster Live makes livestreaming your content more effortless than ever before, regardless of experience level. This portable livestreaming mixer is optimized for smartphone and tablet streaming, offering streamlined controls, onboard vocal effects, and DSP presets. Content creators at Sweetwater appreciate the extensive I/O that plays nice with standard vocal microphones, DSLR cameras, smartphones, headsets, and various music playback devices. Plus, it has a USB port for use as an audio interface for Mac and PC. If you’re looking for super-simple operation and great sound for your livestream, be sure to choose a Mackie M-Caster Live portable livestreaming interface.

Anyone can create compelling content

Mackie designed M-Caster Live for maximum accessibility. Just plug in your smartphone and favorite microphone and go live on the streaming platform of your choice — that's it. The M-Caster Live includes onboard DSP (digital signal processing) to help you find the perfect sound. Use ContourFX presets to refine your vocals with a few turns of a knob. StreamFX provides a selection of fun vocal effects presets from robotic voices to scary monster sounds. With M-Caster Live, you don’t have to understand the ins and outs of EQs, gain staging, or other technical jargon. All you have to do is plug in, select a preset, and start your stream.

I/O for any source

M-Caster Live has the connectivity options for anyone’s workflow, whether you’re just starting out or have an arsenal of audio equipment at your disposal. Of course, you get an XLR input with phantom power for your favorite condenser microphones — but that’s not all! There are inputs for a DSLR camera mic, your gaming headset, smartphone/tablet, and even your laptop. You also get multiple outputs for monitoring. M-Caster Live also includes USB connectivity to function as a USB audio interface for Mac and PC.

Set the mood

You want your streaming setup to look great on camera, right? M-Caster Live comes dressed up in an attractive finish and includes an RGB LED light strip on the bottom. You get access to seven color options, so your interface blends perfectly into your setup.

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Rated 1/5

Horrible preamp

I love ALL of the extra features this thing offers. Really... it's that fun to use.

But... the preamp has a TON of hiss, with NOTHING but monitors/headphones plugged in, and the hiss is caught on any device the audio is passed to, whether that is a PC or a phone, it doesn't matter. Simply makes 99% of the audio unusable for any kind of production work.

I've never been so disappointed by a product.
