![]() These eight “sound effects pads” or Hotkeys as I know then from radio, are for your stings, sound effects, intros or pre-recorded content. Ok, so the Bluetooth was a gamechanger, this is just to put the boot into anyone else thinking about a product like this. Podcasts are about to start sounding very very different. Plus, get this, you can record those interviews to the MicroSD card, out to your PC via USB – OR – Direct to a hotkey for playback later. This will make recording interviews an absolute breeze – utterly sensational. You could take calls live on air from your mobile if you wanted, easy as pie. This is great if you have sounds or stings on another device, though, with the other features I’m about to run through, this does seem redundant. 3.5mm TRRS InputĪ simply little “Aux” port allows you to plug in a Phone or Tablet using a 3.5mm connection. Likewise, you can record directly into Audition or other, or, use the Rodecaster as the desk for a live broadcast online. So you can play content from your PC and have fader level control on the desk. We invested in some headset mics from Sennheiser just a few weeks ago (!) and frankly, they sound thin so we’ve got some tweaking to do if we want consistent sound across both mics.Īround back is a USB-C port, which when plugged into your PC gives you control of the hotkeys (more on that later), but can also be your audio in and out. What I will tell you is the RØDE Procaster Mics we use REALLY sound great now. Look I’ll be honest, this stuff is beyond me, so I’ll be watching how-to videos till the cows come home to get the best from my sound. This includes a range of dynamics, as well as compression, limiters and noise gating. Using the touch-screen interface you can customise the sound of each microphone with broadcast quality sound. Each has a class-A preamp built in, and a huge range of software to make you sound sweet and smooth. I’m unsure I’ll be able to get to it all here. Everything you’ll ever need as a podcaster.Plus, I’ve had a trusty iPad (Original) with me running some software for my stings and Intros.Īll that is background to say – holy crap, RØDE have done it. ![]() Level issues, headphones don’t work, needing a PC attached for recording – it’s good, but hardly great. Great sound, but you come back with raw audio and need to insert all the imaging elements like intros and stings.įinally, just a month or so ago, I went analogue again, and got another Behringer mixer for the EFTM office, but this time got a headphone amp so we could all have headphones. Out on the road, I’ve primarily opted for an iPhone connected RØDE iXY or Shure Motiv. In both instances, I also needed my Computer, that USB interface and a good internet to get things happening, after all, I was doing a talk-back style show so had to record calls from my Skype through the mixer and back into Audition. When I moved into my new house, and built my man cave with purpose built studio, I went all out – got a Mackie iPad controlled mixer and some stunning Shure SM7B microphones. That’s a secret that will stay between me and the good people at Turramurra Music.īack in the day I bought a Behringer 8 track mixer, a USB interface and an AudioTechnica microphone along with a RØDE mic-arm. I’ve been podcasting for almost a decade, and in that time the amount of money I’ve spent on “gear” is almost embarrassing. Well here it is, the all-Aussie podcast gamechanger – the Rodecaster pro – a new all-in-one mixing desk for the simplest and most advanced podcast producers.
