Rode RODECaster Pro II Integrated Audio Production Studio Console

The RODECaster Pro II is the ultimate audio production solution for streamers, podcasters, musicians and content creators. Combining revolutionary features with superior sound quality, unmatched ease of use and endless customization, it is all any creator will ever need to record incredible audio.

The large (5.5-inch) high-definition, full-color touchscreen with haptic feedback, tactile rotary encoder, bright RGB color-coding and hands-on controls makes navigating the RODECaster Pro II super simple.

Pre-loaded presets and the intuitive VoxLab processing editor make capturing professional-quality sound effortless. Every feature, from setting up a microphone channel to programming the SMART pads, has been designed to maximize creativity, and every function can be controlled on-board via the user-friendly interface or with a computer via RODE Central for maximum convenience.

The RODECaster Pro II offers an unparalleled feature set designed to make anyone sound exceptional every time they hit record. Four studio-grade Neutrik combo inputs with our ultra-low-noise, high-gain Revolution Preamps deliver astonishing clarity and transparency with any microphone or instrument. Users can craft their own unique sound with a full suite of studio-quality APHEX processors, including the legendary Aural Exciter, Big Bottom and Compellor, and powerful on-board effects, including reverb, delay, pitch shifting, robot effects and more. A high-performance quad-core audio engine delivers significantly more processing power than any other content creation console on the market and unlocks huge potential for future updates.

Just like the original, the RODECaster Pro II is fully updateable and will continue to evolve with new firmware that will be available to all users that will introduce new features and functionality, system enhancements, software compatibilities and integration with future RODE products. Users will be able to download and install new firmware directly to their RØDECaster Pro II via Wi-Fi, Ethernet or USB.

The original RODECaster Pro had sound pads. The RODECaster Pro II has SMART pads. As the name suggests, these can be used for so much more than just triggering music, jingles, or sound effects. Each pad can be customised to perform a variety of functions including activating voice effects, sending MIDI commands to external software and hardware for everything from changing scenes in streaming software to triggering samples in a DAW, and activating mixer actions, such as fade ins and fade outs, ducking and profanity muting. Eight banks of pads can be easily accessed via the dedicated bank switching buttons, allowing users to access a total of 64 unique actions. Complete creative control at the touch of a button.
