In this episode we try out RODE’s latest beta firmware update (1.3.2) for the RODECaster Pro II. This update adds a very exciting and much-requested capability: USB microphone support! What does this mean? The RCPII can now be used with most RODE USB mics via a direct USB-C connection, taking the RCPII’s capacity from 4 total mics to 5 and the Duo’s capacity from 2 total mics to 3. In this video we talk through the specifics, demonstrate how to connect your USB mics to the RODECaster, and listen to a sound quality sample compared to two standard XLR mic connections. Let’s take a closer look!

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders. Our latest courses cover Sound for Live Streaming with the ATEM Mini and an Intro to Izotope RX. [ Ссылка ]
