What Castmorphic Studio is
Castmorphic Studio is a browser-based production room for hosting guests, live streaming and recording programmes. The host’s computer draws, mixes and encodes the audience-facing show, while the studio server relays it and stores the recording. Guests join through a browser link without installing software, and phones can participate; each guest sends one camera and one microphone. Streams can go to YouTube, Twitch, any RTMP address or a channel page you create. Recordings include separate camera and microphone tracks for every person, plus the completed programme as broadcast. Room tools include lower thirds, banners, a title card, wallpapers, a soundboard, screen sharing and an intro video. The maker says room speech is not transcribed, analysed or retained; only host-requested recordings remain, controlled by the host. Managed hosting is paid, with a 30-day trial and free options, while GPL code is available for self-hosting.
Who it suits
It suits hosts producing remote podcasts, interviews or live shows who want browser guests and built-in production controls. Self-hosting is also available for teams able to run GPL software themselves.
