Meld Studio
Meld Studio is a live streaming and recording app for macOS that helps creators produce, multistream, and manage interactive broadcasts.
What is Meld Studio?
Meld Studio is a native desktop app for live streaming and video recording on macOS. It is designed for creators such as streamers, podcasters, educators, musicians, churches, and other users who want to produce polished broadcasts from one workspace. The app combines scene-based production tools with multistreaming, recording, chat management, and audio controls so users can run streams and capture content without stitching together as many separate tools. Meld Studio also supports creator workflows such as vertical video, global hotkeys, and a virtual camera for use with other apps. On Mac, it is available for macOS 12 or later and runs on both Intel and Apple Silicon systems.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
Meld Studio is legitimate streaming software for macOS. It may request access to the camera, microphone, screen recording, or related media features when you use capture, virtual camera, or broadcast tools, and those permissions are normal for its purpose. The app can also auto-update, which is common for creator software. Grant only the permissions you need for your workflow, and remove them later in macOS Privacy & Security settings if you stop using those features.
Recommendation: Keep Meld Studio if you use your Mac for livestreaming, recording, teaching, or other broadcast-style video work. If you no longer use it, you can remove the app and its support files to free space, but doing so may delete saved settings and production data tied to the app.
