Your One-Stop Podcast Solution
RODE has revolutionised the Podcasting genre with the RodeCaster Pro Podcast Production Studio. Designed to appeal to a broad range of users, the portable studio features the ability to record audio from four high-quality XLR microphone inputs simultaneously, enabling you to create engaging and entertaining, podcast with up to contributors virtually straight out of the box. Just BYO microphones!
4x Phantom Powered XLR Inputs
Designed to address the specific needs, and streamline the workflow of modern podcasters, the Caster Pro combines four 48V phantom powered XLR mic inputs, four discrete headphone outputs, Bluetooth connectivity to your smartphone, USB-C inputs to your desktop or laptop, TRRS connectivity and eight faders for convenient control of each interface.
Simple Live-Stream Capability
Recording to a microSD card, the studio is perfect for recording in spontaneous locations, streamlining the time from recording to publishing. Its USB interface means the RodeCaster Pro can also be connected to your computer to act like a USB audio interface. Combine it with your favourite streaming platform to create an instant live-stream set up.
Eight Customisable Sound Pads
In addition, the console also features eight sound pads for instant triggering of sound effects, jingles, applause, laugh tracks, advertising spots, music and more. Instantly taking your production value to the next level the RodeCaster Pro allows you to record audio direct to the pads from any of the audio inputs, or simply drag and drop files from your computer via the included software.
Adjustable Sound Pad Colours
The colour of the pads can also be individually customised to make it easier to remember which pad is associated with which file.
Built-in Audio Pre-Sets
With full level control and intuitive pre-sets that can be applied to optimise each input for music, speech or music, you can spend more time concentrating on the quality of your message, rather than the quality of your audio production.
Broadcast Quality Class-A Circuitry
The four XLR mic inputs feature Class-A circuitry, as used in the world’s best broadcast consoles. The Class-A preamps deliver a much cleaner gain structure with lower levels of distortion, resulting in an incredible clean, low-noise signal.
APHEX Audio Processing
The legendary APHEX on board audio processor can then shape your audio signal using the patented APHEX Aural Exciter and APHEX Big Bottom algorithm to deliver a final, broadcast ready sound that mimics the rich, warm tone usually found in high-end professional studios.
Intuitive Touchscreen Interface
The intuitive touchscreen interface makes it simple to navigate and adjust settings according to your specific requirements. Its streamlined design enables you to simply select an auto setup to automatically configure the level of each input, or manually configure the voice type (deep, medium, high / soft, medium or strong) and apply a smart effect for you and each of your guests.
Built-in Audio Filters
Aside from the Aural Exciter and Big Bottom, you can also apply filters for compression and noise-gate, adding depth and consistency, a high-pass filter, a De-esser and ducking to add instant professional production values and sound quality to your podcast.
Smartphone Connectivity
The Bluetooth or TRRS connectivity options enable you to add a 5th participant with ease. Whether they are a remote guest calling your smartphone from another country, or another presenter in the same studio, the RodeCaster Pro automatically generates a mix-minus signal to prevent echo and deliver crystal clear audio every time.
Simple Media Library Connectivity
The USB, TRRS and Bluetooth interfaces can also be used as media libraries, enabling you play pre-recorded interviews, music or virtually any other kind of audio file or stream that can be played on your device.
For Beginner & Professional Podcasters
Ticking all the boxes for beginner, enthusiast and professional podcasters, the RodeCaster Pro Podcast Studio by RØDE takes the technical stress of audio production out of the equation while streamlining your workflow and improving your sound and production quality.
