If you own the RØDECaster Pro integrated podcast production studio or have one on loan from a good pal, then you’re the type of person who is open to making your podcasting work easier. Knowing that people like you prioritize efficiency and user-friendly operations, RØDE has released a handful of cost-effective accessories built to expand usability and simplify connectivity with the powerful RØDECaster Pro.
For starters, why not make your RØDECaster Pro truly portable? The RØDE DC-USB1 is a special adapter cable that lets you power your RØDECaster Pro from any USB Type-A power brick or USB Type-A PSU rated for a minimum of 5V / 2.4A. It features a locking DC plug to prevent accidental disconnection from your RØDECaster Pro and a USB Type-A male connector for direct hookup to a compatible USB power source. With the DC-USB1, you can take your RØDECaster Pro anywhere, no power outlets required!
Next, since you’re going to need headphone monitoring for you and your guests, you should be prepared to hook up multiple sets of headphones. The RØDECaster Pro features four 1/4" headphone outs—an easy match to headphones equipped with 1/4" plugs, but that presents a problem for anyone who’ll be using headphones with a 3.5mm mini plug. The RØDE HJA-4 is a 4-pack of compact adapters that convert 3.5mm TRS to 1/4" TRS, the perfect solution for plugging in 3.5mm-equipped ear buds, in-ear monitors, or traditional headphones to the headphone ports on your RØDECaster Pro.
In the likely event that an upcoming podcast requires you to route in phone calls, you’ll need to connect a smartphone straight to your RØDECaster Pro. The RØDE SC9 is designed for exactly that purpose. It’s a 4.9' cable with a 3.5mm TRRS mini plug on each end; connect one end to your smartphone and the other end into the RØDECaster Pro’s TRRS phone input. With such a direct, wired connection, you can bypass Bluetooth and its possible drawbacks, such as wireless interference, dropped pairing, and reduced audio quality.
None of the aforementioned accessories will deplete your budget, and investing in them is sure to improve your podcast productions. Stop by the B&H SuperStore or visit our website to learn more and add these RØDE items to your cart!
