RODE RODECaster Video All-in-One Production Console
Designed to excel in a wide variety of production applications—social media, streaming, podcasting, and live events—the RODECaster Video blends the best of HD video switching technology with the familiar studio-grade audio control of previous RODECasters. The console offers intuitive control over both video and audio sources with its onboard controls, 2" touchscreen display, and rotary encoder. A variety of connectivity options, including HDMI and USB-C ports, accommodate UVC video sources as well as both analog and digital audio sources. Up to 20 possible audio sources, or nine stereo channels, can be connected to the RODECaster Video using both wired and wireless connections. Add the RODECaster Video to your preexisting RODE audio ecosystem using the USB-C audio ports or RODE Central software for advanced device configuration.
Firmware Update v1.2.0
The newest update to the RODECaster Video unlocks NDI support for four NDI inputs and one NDI output via Ethernet to deliver video over IP at no additional cost. PTZ control for compatible NDI cameras is also introduced with this update for real-time adjustments. Advanced Luma Key, Key Mask, and Layer Stretch refine the device's keying capabilities. You can now use any input as an overlay and apply rounded corners to scene layers and overlays. Stretch or squash scene layers for extra versatility. Pair the RODECaster Video with your RODECaster Pro II or RODECaster Duo and link specific audio channels to camera angles for automatic video switching based on who's speaking. Additional UI and routing enhancements gray out pre-mute meters and separate output mixers for HDMI and NDI outputs.
Video Interface
- The RODECaster Video features nine mix-effect layers that can simultaneously display in both preview and program views. Two downstream keyers toggle overlays and logo, two chroma-keyers toggle different backgrounds, and two media players can play simultaneous MP4 video, PNG/JPG photos, or WAV audio from an inserted microSD card.
- Multiview allows you to visualize both the program and preview, all the live inputs with scene and media thumbnails, the audio mixer and channel status, recording/network/storage status as well as runtime, date, and time information. Non-destructive setup means the process can be done live or configured as a saved scene without interrupting the flow of your production.
- Switch between six 1080p60 video sources—four HDMI and two USB-C—and create up to seven complex scenes with multiple layers of video, media, and graphics. Save these scenes and recall them with the touch of a button.
- Configure the two HDMI outputs to connect displays and view preview, program, and multiview feeds. Use the program feed to see what is being streamed/recorded and the preview feed to view inputs, scenes, graphics, or media sources before they go live.
Audio Sources
- Two studio-grade combo XLR-1/4" jacks on the console are equipped with low-noise, high-gain Revolution Preamps to ensure pristine audio capture from XLR microphones and instruments.
- Use digital USB-C ports to connect RODE USB microphones, the RODECaster Pro II, or Duo Audio Production Studios. Other USB-C ports support 2-in/2-out multichannel outputs, mix-minus, and MFi protocols.
- Internal wireless receivers can connect RODE series IV wireless microphones to the console, like the Wireless GO II and Wireless PRO.
- Aphex VoxLab audio processing equips the RODECaster Video with EQ, compressor, noise gate, high-pass filter, de-esser, Aural Exciter, Big Bottom, and Compellor effects per channel. Integrated preamps provide up to 75 dB input gain and -131.5 dBV equivalent input noise.
- Mix and process audio onboard using the touchscreen and rotary encoder or the software mixer in RODE Central.
RODE Ecosystem Connectivity
The current USB 4 and 5 ports on the RODECaster support select RODE USB microphones including the PodMic USB, NT-USB+, NT-USB Mini, VideoMic NTG, VideoMic GO II, XCM-50, and XCM-10.
Intuitive Controls
- The RODECaster Video prioritizes scene-based switching with an intuitive control layout. This gives users quicker access to the tools they need to create dynamic content without needing to access complicated settings. The front panel of the device includes a wide variety of controls specific to certain features.
- Automatic chroma keying makes replacing backgrounds with media or live video inputs a breeze. Apply transparency to use the input in scenes or with various backgrounds. Choose between blue and green screen with advanced controls.
- Seven media buttons load video clips, images, and sounds onto a microSD card for use in your production. Two internal video players allow you to transition from one to another in your scene compositions.
- Seven graphic buttons load images with transparency. Dynamically trigger graphics to transition over an input or scene.
Inspect Button
When pressed, the Inspect feature gives you a detailed snapshot of what video input is assigned to it as well as media, graphics, and layout information on the integrated screen. Preview the button in your Multiview while maintaining the ability to instantly switch between sources.
Intelligent Auto-Switching
The RODECaster Video's intelligent auto-switching makes for seamless and creative hands-free switching between video sources. Any audio input can be linked to any video source, allowing intelligent level detection to automatically trigger switching when your talent is speaking to follow the conversation. Switching priorities and screen time algorithms give it a natural feel as if a producer or technical director were calling the shots.
Intuitive Streaming and Recording
Stream up to 100 Mb/s directly using RTMP to major platforms like YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook Live via integrated Wi-Fi 6 or Ethernet connection. Real-time signal health reporting is displayed on your multiview. Record directly to an external USB storage device or internal microSD card, including isolated (ISO) recording for more flexible postproduction workflows. You can record your program feed as an H.264/AVC MP4 file with embedded AAC stereo mix. Multiple audio tracks can be recorded as nine independent stereo WAV files.
RODE Central
Use the RODE Central companion software when connected to a computer to adjust more advanced features of the RODECaster Video. Construct scenes using remote control, configure automatic switching based on audio inputs, mix audio, and configure streaming settings and profiles as well as adjust advanced settings and customizations. The software supports macOS and Windows operating systems.
Custom Scene Builder
The scene builder in RODE Central allows you to create a completely customized scene from scratch. Select a RODE preset with default layouts and themes for your keying backgrounds or video borders. A live RTMP feed will update to show your changes in real-time.

RODE PodMic Dynamic Podcasting Microphone (Black)
Podcasters looking for the right mic to bring professional-quality sound to their productions on YouTube, FaceBook, Twitch, and elsewhere have a great option with the black PodMic from Rode. This cost-effective, yet stylish, end-address dynamic XLR microphone is specifically tuned for speech and broadcast. Tailor-made for use with the RODECaster Pro podcast production studio and PSA1 broadcast arm, it can also be plugged into a wide range of pro-audio gear to deliver broadcast-quality sound.
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.
Podcast in Any Environment
Most podcasts happen in bedrooms, home studios, or offices with less than perfect acoustics and noises coming from the outside. The PodMic features a dynamic capsule with a tight cardioid polar pattern, great for picking up the speaker while reducing unwanted sounds that are further away or off to the sides.
Get Close to Your Mic
With its end-address design, the PodMic invites you to get right up close and create intimate broadcast-style voice recordings with a deep and warm tone. Its compact size lets you and your guests see each other and enjoy an open and comfortable talking experience, while the mic stays out of the camera's way when videocasting.
Built to Last
Solid-brass construction with a hard-wearing matte-black ceramic finish ensures that the PodMic will continue to deliver the same level of performance over the years, while still looking great.
Clean Speech without Distractions
The PodMic's internal pop filter and double-mesh housing work to effectively reduce distracting breath and plosive noises (as in s, p, and b sounds) without the need for an unsightly external pop filter.
Protect Your Sound from Vibrations
The internal shockmount helps to isolate the PodMic from handling noise and vibrations when you are adjusting the mic or if there's a bump or knock on the table. The integrated swing mount that holds the mic further insulates it from low-frequency noises, which could ruin your audio.
Swing into the Right Position
The PodMic has two wing nuts on each side of its built-in mount, allowing you to quickly swing the mic into the right orientation and lock it into place. Mounting the PodMic on the PSA1 broadcast boom arm (available separately) gives you the added flexibility to position the microphone exactly where you want it.
Get Professional Results
Pair the PodMic with the powerful RODECaster Pro podcast production studio to leverage the most out of your microphone. Select the PodMic microphone preset in the RODECaster Pro audio options and matching digital signal processing is automatically applied, giving your voice the depth, presence, and hint of shimmer associated with top professional radio broadcasters.

Kopul Premium Performance 3000 Series Neutrik XLR Male to XLR Female Microphone Cable (10', Black)
The black Kopul Premium Performance 3000 Series XLR Male to XLR Female Microphone Cable (10') is designed to be an extremely quiet and flexible cable that is ideal for the most demanding live sound and performance applications. The cable is engineered to be durable and provide protection against EMI, RFI, and static noise. While the cable's color-coding affords the ability to quickly differentiate between multiple connections onstage, it provides a pleasant aesthetic quality at the same time.

Auray WBF-BDM Foam Windscreen for Broadcast Dynamic Mics (Black)
The black Auray WBF-BDM foam windscreen is tailored to fit most broadcast dynamic microphones with a 2" diameter such as the Rode PodMic and the Shure SM7B. It's a practical and simple solution that minimizes vocal plosive sounds of announcers and singers who work up close to the microphone.
In recording or podcast studios, it will also reduce noise from moving air produced by air conditioning, fans, or ventilation systems, up to 8 dB with only minimal high-frequency loss. The hypoallergenic and washable foam also shields your microphone from dust, debris, and moisture that can damage your microphone's capsule.
Acoustic Foam
The windscreen simplifies recording podcasts or vocals with a broadcast dynamic microphone. When recording at home or in the office, you'll need to reduce the noise from moving air caused by ventilation systems, fans, or air conditioners without muffling the sound. Rather than turning off the AC or fan while you record, simply slip the windscreen over your microphone to minimize noise due to moving air.
Minimizes Vocal Plosives
If you prefer to work close to the microphone for those great low frequencies from the proximity effect, you're bound to incur the drastic P and B sounds that seem like miniature explosions. As an alternative to moving further away from the microphone, the windscreen minimizes those disruptive vocal plosives while allowing you to stay close to the mic.
Protects against Damage
Dirt, dust, and even the moisture from your breath can damage a mic capsule. This simple foam windscreen shields against harmful debris and moisture, and it prolongs the life of your microphone.

- Electro-Voice RE20

A valuable tool for any audio professional who requires critical monitoring, the Senal SMH-1000-MK2 Professional Studio Monitor Headphones are designed for high-quality audio in a variety of settings including studios, the field, and on sets. They offer accurate sound reproduction, making them ideal for checking audio for clarity, monitoring dialog, or quickly checking levels.
The headphones feature a closed-back over-the-ear design that blocks out ambient noise, so you can focus on your audio.

The interchangeable cable design with twist-locking jack prevents accidental disconnects, and the collapsible construction makes them easy to store and transport.
Closed-Back, Circumaural Design
- The closed-back over-the-ear design and padded ear cushions are ideal for recording and field applications because they provide superb isolation from external noise. The SMH-1000-MK2's design helps to reduce bleed, preserve bass response, and minimize unwanted sounds of a noisy studio, set, or ambient noise.
40mm Neodymium Drivers
- The large 40mm neodymium drivers deliver a wide frequency response with minimal distortion for natural sound reproduction.
Ideal for Dialog
- The SMH-1000-MK2 headphones have a tailored frequency curve that makes them ideal for monitoring vocals, dialog, news, and podcasts. A small peak in the high frequencies ensures dialog cuts through clearly and naturally without coloration or unnatural highs or lows.
Swiveling Ear Cups
- The earcups swivel ±90°, great for quick over-the-shoulder monitoring, while you’re checking audio levels or cueing up the next track.
Interchangeable Locking Cables
- Senal’s unique locking jack makes it easy to swap and replace cables, and it provides a secure connection that doesn't detach from an accidental tug or pull.
- The included coiled cable stretches to 10' and is ideal for studio use, so you can move freely while you’re singing, narrating, or monitoring.
- The included 3' straight cable is perfect for boom pole operators who need to plug into a field mixer or receiver and don’t want to trail lots of extra cable behind them.
- Both cables terminate with a 3.5mm mini plug that’s compatible with computer and mobile devices. The included 1/4" adapter lets you connect the headphones to professional gear such as headphone amplifiers, video switchers, audio interfaces, and mixing consoles.
Lightweight, Durable Comfort
- The SMH-1000-MK2 features earcups and a headband with thick padding for comfortable long wearing. But don't mistake the lightweight build. The headphones are durable and rugged, and made for extended use in exacting professional environments.
Embedded Cables
- The SMH-1000-MK2 is carefully designed with embedded, unexposed cables to help prevent snags, crimps, and breaks that can bring your session to a halt.

When this clown goes down to $800 bucks, I'm going to purchase it. But NOT until then. In the meantime, I will wait or look at other products that are cheaper and wait.
Awesome little device. The auto switching is what really makes this thing shine.

The Rodecaster is a pretty cool device but those who would utilize some of the advance switching and setup features in this device could really cut out HOURS of editing. I am very excited to have this thing in our arsenal now.
