Advanced Streaming and Recording Capabilities
Multi-Device Integration
Using the NDI connection, users can simultaneously record with up to three OBSBOT Tail Air units without toggling recording on each device. This feature, coupled with the OBSBOT Live App and Tail Air Smart Remote Controller, enhances the ease of production.
High-Quality Video Encoding

These tools enable users to enhance focus, improve composition, manage audio inputs, and add various graphic overlays.

Multiple Control Options
Flexible Control Mechanisms
The Talent can be controlled using the touchscreen, Tail Air Smart Remote Controller, a web browser, or the multi-cam Live App on compatible mobile devices or tablets. This flexibility is particularly useful for complex control ecosystems, such as live events or worship services, where multiple team members may need to manage audio and video inputs from different locations.
Power Options
Reliable Power Supply
The Talent can be powered through an onboard barrel port or two hot-swappable NP-F battery slots on the back panel. This feature ensures a seamless transition between power sources without interrupting the stream, providing reliability and flexibility during extended recording sessions.
