Cinematic Look pipeline
Grade your camera like footage: warmth, tint, exposure, brightness, contrast, saturation, vibrance and sharpness — live, with a mirrored preview.
Menu bar app · macOS 14+
Your desk is now a studio.
DeskBroadcast turns any webcam and mic into a software-defined studio — color-graded video and broadcast-ready voice, delivered to Zoom, Meet, and Teams as a virtual camera and mic.
The demo below is live — it’s a faithful web replica of the real app.

A web replica of the DeskBroadcast panel. In the real app, everything you see here is applied to your actual webcam and mic — then published as virtual devices.
One menu bar icon.
A whole control room behind it.
Everything runs on-device, in real time, before your call ever sees a frame or a sample.
Virtual camera & mic
Zoom, Meet, and Teams simply select “DeskBroadcast Camera” and “DeskBroadcast Mic” — and receive your fully processed feed. No plugins.
Studio voice chain
Hum filter, noise gate, spectral noise reduction that learns your room, a 4-band voice EQ (Depth, Body, Presence, Air), compressor, and auto-level.
Hardware UVC control
Talk directly to USB webcams: white balance, focus, zoom, shutter, and anti-flicker — real sensor settings, not just software filters.
Guided dial calibration
A live RTA spectrum analyzer walks you through setting the physical gain dials on your interface — no guesswork, no clipping.
One-click presets
Save camera looks and mic chains as presets, and switch your whole studio for a podcast, a pitch, or a stand-up in a single click.
The signal path
DeskBroadcast sits between your hardware and your call — invisible to the apps, entirely under your control.

Questions, answered
Does it work with Zoom, Meet, and Teams?
Yes. DeskBroadcast publishes a standard virtual camera and virtual microphone at the system level. Any app that can pick a camera or mic — Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack, FaceTime, OBS, browsers — can select “DeskBroadcast Camera” and “DeskBroadcast Mic” and receives the fully processed feed.
Which webcams get hardware control?
Any UVC-compliant USB webcam — which covers most models from Logitech, Elgato, Razer, OBSBOT, and others. DeskBroadcast queries the camera and shows exactly the controls it exposes (white balance, focus, zoom, shutter, anti-flicker vary by model). The software Look pipeline and background blur work with every camera, including the built-in one.
Is any processing done in the cloud?
No — processing is entirely on-device. Video, audio, and the room-noise profile the app learns never leave your Mac. There is no account, no telemetry pipeline for your media, and DeskBroadcast works completely offline.
How do licensing and refunds work?
Pro is a one-time $79 purchase. You receive a license key by email and paste it into the app’s “Unlock Pro” panel — done, on all your own Macs. If it doesn’t work out, email hello@deskbroadcast.com within 14 days for a full refund.
