A modern control room that unifies video and RØDE's audio expertise
The RØDECaster extends the DNA of RØDE consoles acclaimed in podcasting by adding a true video control room. It centralizes switching, recording, and graphic overlay in a compact chassis, replacing a stack of devices and simplifying "studio" and live production.
For creators, compact studios, and live broadcasters
Ideal for video podcasts, interviews, online courses, and events, it allows connection of microphones, cameras, and computers, then streaming with just a few steps. The two headphone outputs and L/R monitor output facilitate on-air direction, while scenes and overlays speed up shot changes and branding.
Features designed to focus on essentials
Switcher and overlay: four HDMI 1080p inputs, two Downstream Key controls, automatic Chroma Key, and seven multi-layer scenes (video, media, graphics) for professional results.
Recording and streaming: direct H.264 recording to USB drive, microSD slot for media (MP4, PNG/JPG, WAV), and ISO recording of six sources plus program feed. RTMP streaming without a computer via Ethernet or WLAN.
Reference audio: two combo XLR/Jack inputs with Aphex processing (compressor, EQ, de-esser, noise gate, etc.), Bluetooth 5.3 for stereo sources/calls, and two built-in wireless receivers compatible with RØDE wireless transmitters.
Instant control: 2-inch high-resolution touchscreen, dedicated knobs, and hardware buttons (Record, Auto, Cut, Fade to Black, Overlay, Keying, etc.) to maintain control at every stage.
