RODE RODECaster Duo Integrated Audio Production Studio (Black)
A Streaming Solution for Everyone
Designed to elevate your podcasting, and your streaming, music-making, and content creation, the black RODECaster Duo from RODE is a compact and powerful all-in-one audio production solution that delivers all the same revered features and versatility of the RODECaster Pro II in a smaller, more portable form factor. Perfect for those who require fewer audio inputs and a more travel-friendly design, the RODECaster Duo sacrifices none of the qualities or functionalities of its larger sibling, sporting the same high-powered quad-core audio engine, high-gain, low-noise Revolution preamps, APHEX audio processing, and flexible customization.

The RODECaster Duo features two XLR-1/4" combo inputs for mic- or line-level signals, one stereo pair line output for speakers, two headphone outputs, a microSD card reader for internal multitrack recording, two USB-C host connections, and an ethernet network terminal for hardware or software integrations. Just like the RCPII, you also get intuitive hands on control, such as four assignable mixer faders, six colorful customizable SMART pads for audio, FX, and MIDI triggering, a bright colorful touchscreen, and plenty of buttons and knobs to create engaging content of almost any kind. The RODECaster Duo includes Bluetooth technology and integrated wireless microphone receivers for onboard compatibility with the RODE Wireless GO II and Wireless ME, allowing you to handle just about any usage scenario and any workflow, anywhere.

Product Highlights
  • Premium boutique-class preamps with a high gain, low noise, and mic/line/instrument combo inputs
  • Customizable mixer with RGB color coding
  • Extensively programmable SMART pads for launching sounds, shows, mixer actions, and more
  • Two built-in wireless receivers (one on each mic channel) compatible with the Wireless GO II and Wireless ME transmitters
  • iOS-ready dual USB Type-C ports to connect multiple computers or mobile devices
  • Advanced high-quality Bluetooth input/output, Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and integrated wireless receivers for Series IV transmitters
2 High-End Preamps
  • Built to compete with pricey boutique microphone preamplifiers, the Revolution preamps deliver transparency and detail with ultralow noise (just -131.5 dBV) and incredible gain up to 76 dB, which enables ideal recording levels, even for low-output dynamic mics—no mic boosters, lifters, or normalization needed.
  • Pro-grade Neutrik XLR-1/4" combo jacks provide connection points for microphones (+48V phantom power is available for condenser mics), line-level sources, or instruments such as electric guitar and bass. Pairs of the analog input channels can be linked to easily record stereo mic setups, synths, DJ mixers, or outboard gear.
Studio-Quality Processing and Effects
  • Authentic emulations of classic APHEX hardware processors are onboard—Aural Exciter elevates clarity and sheen, Big Bottom adds warm and deep low-frequency punch, and Compellor glues it all together with compression/leveling—as well as other widely used processors including a reverb, delay, pitch shifter, equalizer, high-pass filter, noise gate, de-esser, robot effects, and more.
  • Use the VoxLab editor to quickly manipulate parameters on several processors via three intuitive controls, or access the advanced editor (onscreen or with a computer) for intricate editing. Use presets, save your own presets, and load them at any time to immediately call up your favorite settings.
6 Programmable SMART Pads
  • Each SMART pad can trigger audio files such as music or sound bites, activate special effects, send MIDI commands to software or hardware, or execute mixer functions like fades, music ducking, and bleeping.
  • Bank switching buttons beneath the pads for a plethora of unique actions.
  • Select the color of your choice for the pad illumination, a convenient way to remember which effect is on which pad.
Customizable Multichannel Mixer
  • The 7-channel mixer features 4 channels with full-size broadcast-quality physical faders and three virtual channels, with the option to expand via digital hosting and hardware integrations with future updates.
  • Physical faders and virtual channels are freely assignable to the two analog inputs, USB and Bluetooth interfaces, and SMART pads.
  • Each channel offers a pan control, mute button, and listen button (pre- or after-fader solo). With channel-specific color coding on the RODECaster Duo, you'll be able to quickly identify your sources.
Stereo or Multitrack Recording
  • Record stereo or individual multitrack files to a microSD card or USB storage such as an external drive.
  • Choose uncompressed WAV format for maximum audio quality or MP3 format to save storage space and extend recording time.
  • Use the RODECaster Duo as a high-quality USB audio interface to stream/record to a computer with ultrafast data transfer.
  • RODECaster Duo runs at 24-bit / 48 kHz, the industry standard for video production.
Monitoring for All
  • Two high-powered 1/4" headphone outputs provide clear personal monitoring for the host and a guest.
  • Separate color-coded volume controls let all participants easily control their own headphone levels.
  • Connect a pair of active speakers to the 1/4" line outputs if you need to amplify your content to a live audience, or go wireless and monitor through a Bluetooth speaker to check the mix on an alternate system.
  • Selectable high or low sensitivity optimizes the gain structure of the headphone outputs, so you can set headphone levels easier.
Podcast-Friendly Specialties
  • Producer talkback mode lets you communicate with guests without affecting the recording.
  • Equipped with advanced Bluetooth connectivity, the RODECaster Duo can be used for ultrahigh-quality phone-call integration, crystal-clear audio streaming, wireless monitoring, and more.
  • Mix-minus on the Bluetooth and USB channels prevents the person on the other end of the call from hearing a distracting echo, making the RODECaster Duo great for remote and local guests in your podcast.
Fast Workflow
  • Save multiple Shows containing all of the RODECaster Duo's settings, an ideal way to instantly switch between types of productions such as podcasts, live streams, and game commentary. Tailored presets for Rode microphones and other popular models help you get great sound in a hurry.
  • The color touchscreen has haptic feedback, automatic brightness adjustment, and is tilted for optimal viewing. Next to the touchscreen, a rotary encoder is placed for efficient navigation and control.
  • Dual USB Type-C interfaces allow two computers or mobile devices to be connected simultaneously, unlocking great options for everything from remote podcasting to organizing complex streaming setups.
Additional Features
  • An internal 1.5 GHz quad-core audio engine delivers significant processing power and unlocks huge potential for future updates.
  • Bidirectional MIDI communication allows excellent integration with DAWs and streaming software.
  • Wi-Fi and Ethernet connections offer high-speed communication with computers and other devices for updating firmware wirelessly, software and hardware integrations, and more.
  • The USB connections are MFi-certified for seamless integration with iOS devices such as iPads.
  • Power the RODECaster Duo via USB Type-C PD (30W).
  • Ready for global use, the unit provides use in 10 languages—English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, and Hindi.
  • RODECaster Duo is fully updatable for continued evolution with new firmware that will be available to all users via Wi-Fi, Ethernet, or USB.
  • Internal wireless microphone receivers for compatibility with any Series IV wireless transmitter, including Wireless GO II and Wireless ME.
Shure SM7B Vocal Microphone (Gray)
For Broadcasting, Podcasting, and Recording
The gray Shure SM7B is a vocal microphone with a smooth, flat, and wide-range frequency response appropriate for music and speech in professional audio applications. The mic's specially engineered dynamic capsule provides a smooth, polished vocal sound with a rich response in the lower frequency registers, making the mic a favorite choice among broadcasters and podcasters.
It features a cardioid polar pattern, bass roll-off and midrange emphasis (presence boost) controls, and shielding against broadband interference. Internal air-suspension shock isolation helps to eliminate mechanical noise transmission, and a yoke mount facilitates mounting and provides precise control of the mic position.
This microphone is part of the B&H Virtual Mic Locker, an online tool to help our valued customers determine the sonic differences between popular microphones for podcasting and voice over work. Each microphone was recorded using a Grace Design M103 preamp into a Presonus Quantum 2626 interface.
Flat, Wide-Range Frequency Response
The flat-frequency response enhances the midrange and high frequencies that are associated with the human voice.
Rejection of Electromagnetic Hum
Improved rejection of electromagnetic hum—optimized for shielding against broadband interference emitted by computer monitors.
Air Suspension Shock Isolation
Internal air-suspension shock isolation virtually eliminates mechanical-noise transmission.
Pop Filter
The detachable close-talk windscreen eliminates the need for any add-on protection against explosive breath sounds—even for close-up vocals or narration.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
The classic cardioid pickup pattern is designed to reject off-axis audio, so you can sing or speak at a comfortable angle. And, it captures the sound with minimum coloration, isolating the signal source helps to reduce feedback issues.
