Hank here for free podcast tools and This time I'm going to be talking about Road's upcoming video switcher full Disclosure the information and images I've obtained could be subject to change Since Road hasn't announced anything Publicly you can take all of this with a Grain of salt but I'm pretty confident On the layout of the device if you're Looking for a super short Tick Tock Length video and price and launch date This isn't the video for you however if You want to take a look at the images That I have obtained and you also want To geek out and speculate wildly then This is definitely the video for you I'm Pretty confident that the title that is On the device will be the actual release Title roadter video and for all intents And purposes it looks like this could be A serious Contender against the ATM Series from black matter magic among Other video switchers that are out there Let's take a look at the top of the Image in the upper left there appears to Be a record button that's what I think It is let me know in the comments if you Think it's something different we have a Bunch of buttons an array of buttons a Through F and then one through six Followed by a seventh button underneath The G then we have four vertical buttons I would assume those have something to Do with picture and picture and display

Like the ATM series then we have a tiny Color LCD screen we have three buttons To the right of that one is an eyeball So view an auto and cut button so you're Switching and then above that we have The two headphone knobs and the one on The inside that has the green ring has a Line going down to the LCD screen So I'm assuming that's going to be like The rotary wheel like on the roadter Pro 2 and the roadter duo I first heard About this device at the end of last Year but up until a couple of weeks ago There weren't any images that I could Get my hands on on the back of the unit From left to right we have the power Button that looks like the same power Button from the duo in the broadcaster Pro 2 I'm not a big fan of that power Button but I'll digress Then we have the power USBC Port Followed by a Micro SD slot and it looks Like it has the indentation to make it a Little easier to get the SD card in and Out plus you have the ethernet port and Then you have five USBC ports I'd just Be speculating as to exactly what they Do because the image is so blurry it's Hard to make out anything but I would Assume you would have potentially dual PC connectivity you could also possibly Have USBC mic connectivity I don't know If Road will extend outside of their Road USB microphones or not but I would
Expect that and then possibly a webcam USBC port on the Mackie video switcher Device you'll see that connectivity for A webcam and for a USB microphone so I Would assume Road would do that as well One of those icons under number three Looks like a smartphone so I could be Wrong I'm not sure and then one and two I'm not sure if those are for different Computers or devices next to that we Have four HDMI in and then we have two HDMI out those are labeled A and B the Other ones were labeled 1 through 4 then We have two Quin headphone Jacks and Then we have left right monitor qu in Jacks lastly we'll have what I believe To be two nutric combo inputs so what do We know we know they requested 180 days Of confidentiality which at the time of Filing would place that somewhere in mid February so that means the device would A be readily available before then or B Be fully announced before then I don't Know why you want to miss the holiday Season so maybe the launch or pre-order For the device Is imminent you just never know we also Know that there is some sort of wireless Capability to the unit potentially could It connect to the road Wireless go 3 or All their other units and yes I said Three as for what I think I hope and Think that at least one of those inputs Is going to be 4K 60 I mean you got to
Include that for the gaming element I Hope they all are but just in case They're not at least give us one as I Stated earlier I think you'll be able to Connect a USB mic and a USB webcam to The unit but I don't know that and then I think you'll be able to connect to two PCS on the wild speculation front when The streamer X came out it was $400 so With all the connectivity on this I Think this will be Road's most expensive Product ever I don't think that's wild Speculation I think that's going to be a Fact but in the comments let me know how High do you think they will go before I Launch keep in mind if you search on Amazon basic switchers can run 300 to 600 bucks and then stuff with a little More bells and whistles get up in there In the S to 800 bucks and then a lot of The top-of-the-line switchers are over $1,000 like the RGB mini miix that's the Format I thought Road would go in However I'm pleasantly surprised that They're going to use the format like the Black magic atim series of video Switchers when more news starts to flow About the price release date or Pre-order date Etc I'll be back for that But I ask you please share this video Far and wide want to get this out there Potentially could get them to make some Official comments sooner rather than Later and like I said at the top this
Information could be subject to change The images Etc could all be a little bit Different when the product launches but I don't think so please be sure to Subscribe to the channel and as always Thank you
