Live streaming and recording from a Mac, with an editor in the same app
Most creators juggle two apps: one to go live and one to edit the recording afterwards. Broadcut puts both in a single native Mac app that shares one project and one render engine. Here is how a combined edit-and-stream workflow helps and what it includes.

The two-app problem
The usual setup is a streaming app for going live and a separate editor for cutting the recording. They do not share a project, so you re-import footage, rebuild layouts, and lose the connection between what you streamed and what you publish. It is friction on both ends.
One project, two rooms
Broadcut is organized as two rooms over a single project. The Edit Room is a professional multitrack editor built on rational, drift-free timeline math, with insert and overwrite edits, roll and ripple trims, markers and captions. The Live Desk is a scene-based RTMP(S) broadcaster with tally, mic metering and preflight checks. Because they share one Metal render engine, what you build in one room is consistent with the other.
Streaming that respects your time
Going live should not be a gamble. Broadcut runs preflight checks before you stream, offers presets from 720p30 up to 4K30, and records locally while you broadcast. A background Transmit Queue renders from immutable snapshots, so you can keep cutting while an export or transmit runs.
How Broadcut fits together
Broadcut gives you frame-exact editing and scene-based streaming in one app, sharing one project. Stream a session over RTMP or RTMPS with a local recording as backup, then jump into the Edit Room to cut the highlight or the full replay without re-importing anything. On this site it is a fully activated donation download that runs on your Mac.
Who this is for
- Streamers who publish edited highlights after going live.
- Educators and presenters running scene-based broadcasts.
- Anyone who wants streaming and editing without stitching two apps together.
Frequently asked questions
Can I stream over RTMP from a Mac and record at the same time?
Yes. Broadcut's Live Desk streams over RTMP or RTMPS with presets from 720p30 to 4K30 and records locally at the same time, so you always keep a backup.
Can I edit my stream recording in the same app?
Yes. Broadcut's Edit Room is a frame-exact multitrack editor that shares the same project as the Live Desk, so you edit the recording without re-importing.
Does exporting block me from working?
No. A background Transmit Queue renders from immutable snapshots, so you can keep editing while an export or transmit runs.
