In this week’s episode, we have a look at the new RODECaster Pro II. This follow-up to the original RODECaster Pro is an ‘integrated audio production studio,’ as well as a user-friendly audio recorder and interface for streaming and podcasting. It’s also something of a real-time digital audio processor, sound pad playback device, 4-way headphone amplifier, livestream MIDI controller, and overall purpose-built computer. Because this is a deep product, we’ll just scratch the surface in this video by giving you an overview of the feature set as well as walk through some sound quality and functionality tests. In future episodes we’ll take a deeper dive into some of the specific features and use cases discussed here. Let’s take a closer look!
