Review on FEELWORLD Switcher Production Streaming Lightweight by Aaron Jones

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Really compact budget switcher - great value

Just used this for a week long live music teaching workshop ending with a student concert. This blender was easy to set up, tailored to my needs and performed flawlessly all week long. The small LED screen (which the competition doesn't have) is a valuable asset for quick setup and menu functions. For a simple two-camera week-long workshop, I only needed a switcher and my laptop (with OBS to add graphics) to monitor the video, eliminating the need for a dedicated preview monitor. For a three camera gig I added a 5.5 inch Feelworld monitor and was pleasantly surprised to find the preview output is a multi screen setup with all four inputs, preview and program screens. I would be happy with just the input selection for the preview, but it's awesome! A bit cramped for a 5.5" monitor, so I'll be getting a larger monitor for my next job. I've been switching live events for a long time and one thing I love about the switcher is its simplicity for small tasks like this, and the Feelworld L1 certainly ticks that box, it's very handy and easy to learn for a beginner A few caveats for anyone looking at this mixer, the switching is done entirely by the fader stick, even the slots, which is a bit odd It would have been nice to have a 'duplicate' button to switch from input to input but the fader worked well during the event time will tell if the fader stick holds up the use Audio will be best sent via one of the camera's selectable audio inputs as the analog input is frame synchronized and there is no way to delay the audio in the mixer If you don't have an audio delay device this can i It can be difficult in some situations as you may need a sustained tone. Note for OBS users: the toggle doesn't appear as "Feelworld" in the input list, but as something else, "eE..." like that. My other techs and cameramen were really impressed with this switcher so they'll probably get it. for your work. I would definitely recommend this to anyone interested.
