RØDE has unleashed the RØDECaster Pro II, a fully-integrated audio production studio for content creators of all kinds — not just podcasters.
RØDE’s sequel to their outstanding RØDECaster Pro, which earned a FutureMusic PowerAward with a score of 97%, is a brilliant rethinking of their original concept. Designed to meet the needs of all content creators in addition to podcasters, RØDE has expanded the functionality and enhanced almost every aspect of the original’s design. Even better, if RØDE continues its philosophy of broadening the capabilities of its products with exciting firmware updates, the RØDECaster Pro II could be store for even more functionality.

The RØDECaster Pro II now contains four Neutrik combo inputs (XLR + 1/4″) for connecting microphones, as well as instruments. Each input features RØDE’s Revolution Preamps, which were developed specifically for the RØDECaster Pro II. With a low equivalent input noise rating of just -131.5dBV and 76dB of gain on tap, they eliminate the need for lifters, boosters or external processing, even with the most demanding dynamic microphones.
The RØDECaster Pro II also features APHEX audio processors, which now look more like DAW plug-ins. These have been completely overhauled from the original RØDECaster Pro and remodeled using component-level analysis of analog units to deliver dynamic signal processing. A new, high-performance quad-core audio engine delivers more processing power.
The high-definition, full-color touchscreen, now slanted upwards, like an Akai MPC, combined with the rotary encoder, makes navigating and controlling the console simple. Professionally tailored presets and the highly innovative VoxLab processing editor allows anyone to capture quality audio, even without prior experience.

The RØDECaster Pro II is fully customizable and can adapt to any creative recording application, from livestreaming and gaming to podcasting to music production. It features nine individually assignable channels, with six physical faders and three virtual faders. Any of the nine audio sources can be allocated to any fader, allowing users to design their ideal mixer configuration to suit their creative requirements and workflow.
The eight SMART pads are so much more than just sound triggers; they can be customized to do everything from triggering on-the-fly voice effects like reverb, echo, robot and pitch FX, send MIDI commands to external software and hardware, activate automated mixer actions like fade-ins and fade-outs, and more. The bank switching buttons provide access to eight banks for a total of 64 unique actions at the touch of a button. The on-board effects and APHEX processors are also fully tweakable, with granular on-board editing allowing users to fine-tune every parameter to suit their voice or instrument. All processing and effect parameters can be saved as presets and loaded at any time on any channel.
Every setting, from the mixer configuration to SMART pads, as well as entire recordings, can be saved on-board as a Show, allowing users to get set up and recording in seconds. This also makes the RØDECaster Pro II ideal for creators who make different types of content, multi-functional studios, or production or education facilities that require different setups for different users.
Dual USB-C interfaces accommodate the connection of two computers or mobile devices simultaneously, with an extra virtual USB channel for connecting chat applications, unlocking huge potential for everything from remote podcasting to organizing complex streaming setups. MFi certification ensures seamless integration with iOS devices.
Advanced Bluetooth connectivity with wide-band speech makes recording high-quality phone calls easy and can also be used for clear audio streaming and even connecting wireless speakers. Users can record in stereo or multitrack either to an on-board microSD, computer or external storage device, with fast data transfer over USB.
The RØDECaster Pro II also offers Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections, allowing users to update firmware wirelessly, integrate with hardware and software, and more.
