From the First Rodecaster to the Pro II: A Generation Leap
With the Rodecaster Pro II, Rode reshuffles the deck for all-in-one consoles. Compared to the first Rodecaster, this version adds quieter and more powerful Revolution preamps, a dual USB interface to control two devices simultaneously, SMART Pads far beyond simple sound pads, a 5.5-inch HD touchscreen with haptic feedback, and Wi-Fi/Ethernet connectivity for updates and network integration. A compact format designed equally for podcasting, streaming, and music production.
Who Is It For? Podcasters, Streamers, and Demanding Musicians
Whether you're hosting a multi-mic talk, a Twitch live, or multitrack demos, the Rodecaster Pro II streamlines workflow: plug in, adjust, record. The two USB ports allow pairing a broadcast computer and a recording computer, while the broadband Bluetooth manages guest calls and mobile integrations with clean mix-minus. The four headphone outputs provide powerful and clear monitoring for everyone.
Create Without Friction: Power, Control, and Customization
Sound and Processing
The four combo XLR/6.35 mm jack inputs and very low-noise preamps preserve detail even with demanding dynamic microphones. The APHEX signatures "Aural Exciter," "Big Bottom," and "Compellor" complement EQ, compressor, de-esser, high-pass filter, reverb, delay, pitch, and ducking for broadcast-ready sound.
Touch Control and Automations
The 5.5-inch HD touchscreen and touch encoder offer fast navigation, with pro presets and the "VoxLab" editor to get straight to the point. The SMART Pads trigger vocal effects, jingles, MIDI commands, fades, and mix actions; their RGB LEDs and 8 banks optimize live visibility.
Connectivity and Recording
Record in stereo or multitrack on microSD card, USB storage, or computer. The dual USB interface, broadband Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi/Ethernet integrate into all setups, with flexible routing, mix-minus, and controlled latency for comfortable monitoring.
