What you get

You get a live audio mix for broadcasting, monitoring, or another app.

You can combine your microphone, music source, and other audio devices into a live mix, then listen through your headphones while you broadcast. With up to four inputs and four outputs, you can choose which sources reach each destination and adjust their levels independently.

You can send the mix to multiple streaming servers at once, with separate settings for each destination. Broadcasting requires your own or rented Icecast, SHOUTcast, or RTMP server; Ladiocast does not provide one. You can still mix and monitor audio without a server, and save your setup to reuse later.

On macOS 14.2 or later, you can also pass your mix to a recording or streaming app through Ladiocast Loopback, without installing a driver. That lets you broadcast to a server and record in another app at the same time. Ladiocast itself does not record files or capture other apps’ audio.

  • Balance your sources

    You can adjust microphones and music independently so each source sits at the level you want.

  • Choose what reaches each output

    You can route each input to your main output, auxiliary outputs, or both.

  • Reach multiple streaming destinations

    You can broadcast your mix to several servers simultaneously, using different settings for each.

  • Use your mix elsewhere

    On macOS 14.2 or later, you can feed your mix into another app for recording or streaming without installing a driver.

Best for

  • You host internet radio using your own or rented server
  • You need to combine several audio devices live
  • You want to broadcast and record your mix in another app simultaneously

Skip it if

You only need to adjust your Mac’s speaker volume or want an app that records audio files by itself.
