Feature | Description |
---|---|
Users / Team collaboration |
Each user in a Business account has a seat to create Studios, invite participants, record, and access the recording files. |
Separate tracks |
These are the high-quality audio & video recording files you can download for each participant. This gives you more control in post-production. |
Studios |
The Studio is where your recordings take place and where you can access the files after you're done. You can customize the settings for each Studio. |
Productions |
Productions are shared team spaces for multiple Studios in a Business account. You can set different permissions for each Production. This is great for cross-team collaboration. |
Video quality – desktop recording |
Depending on your plan and participants' devices, record at up to 720p, 1080p, or 4K resolution using a desktop or laptop. |
Video quality – mobile recording |
Depending on your plan and participants' devices, record at up to 720p, 1080p, or 4K resolution. |
Second camera angle – mobile |
Use your mobile device as a second camera to capture shots from different angles. This gives you more to work with in post-production. |
Clips export quality |
Depending on your plan, export Clips at up to 4K resolution. |
Audio quality |
Depending on your plan, switch between 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. |
Available frame rates |
Depending on your plan, switch between 24 FPS, 25 FPS, or 29.97 FPS. |
Number of people in a recording |
Each session on Riverside can record up to 8 people. For example, your session could include 1 Host and up to 7 Guests. |
Producer role with full Studio control |
Producers participate in the call to support the host and guest. They have full control over studio settings, but they're not recorded. This way the host can focus on chatting with their guests. |
Audience mode |
Audience members can join as viewers, but won't be part of the recorded call unless they call-in. |
Riverside Editor |
Our built-in editor gives you powerful tools to create a polished, final video or create short excerpts. Enhance audio, trim content, switch speaker layouts, and use the transcript to remove parts you don't want. |
Text-based Editing |
Search and trim your recording using the transcription of the conversation that Riverside generates automatically. It's as easy as editing a doc. |
Clips |
Easily create bite-size clips from preset layouts to share highlights on social media and wherever you publish your podcast. |
Screen sharing |
Hosts, Guests or Producers can easily share their screens during a session. Each screen share will be recorded as a separate track, giving creators full control during post-production. |
Live Call-Ins |
Audience members can participate in a live session and be recorded like a Guest. |
Presentation recorder |
Upload presentations to present during the call. These are recorded locally in an aligned separate track so you have a high-quality version to use in post-production. |
Private chat |
Allow people in the Studio to send messages to individual participants instead of to everyone in the call. |
Noise reduction |
Reduce background noise such as ACs, computer fans, heaters, or other ambient sounds. |
Integrations |
Easily publish your podcast directly from Riverside to Spotify or Transistor. |
Remove watermark | On a paid plan, you can remove the small watermark from exported clips. |
Live streaming | Riverside enables you to stream directly to YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Twitch, Linkedin and another platforms with RTMP when you record. |
Transcription and caption files |
Download text of the full conversation to use for captioning your media or creating other text-based content. |
Full frame view | Usually, the video frames are responsive to fit all participants equally. Choose full frame to always display each participant's uncropped video. |
Upload control | Have more control of whether your participants' tracks upload automatically during the session or when you choose. This way, you can prioritize their internet connection for the live conversation. |
Custom branding |
Customize the Studio and Guest Lobby with your logo so participants see your branding before and during the call. |
Simultaneous recordings | Business accounts can record in multiple Studios simultaneously. |
Async recordings | Create a link for one person or a group to each record on their own. With the link, each participant can record at a time that works for them. |
Change input/output devices of Guests remotely | Have full control over your Guests' audio & video inputs and output and make adjustments. |
Camera controls – mobile | Remotely adjust your Guest's camera settings if they are using the Riverside iOS app to tweak the color temperature and light exposure to get the best video quality. |
Customizable bit rate | Business accounts can contact Riverside Support to increase their Studios' target video bit rate. |
