Rode RODECaster Duo White

Mixer, recorder and dual audio interface in one device - the perfect solution for podcasters and content creators.

A 5.5" HD touchscreen, logically arranged controls and professional channel presets with Quick Editor ensure a fast workflow. If you want, you can also delve deep into the signal processing parameters. Proven mixer setups can be saved with all settings as a "show" and restored at the touch of a button if required.

Mixing console

The RØDECaster Duo White has seven freely assignable input channels, four of which have long 100 mm faders as well as select, mute and solo buttons. The remaining three input channels are virtual and are operated via touchscreen and encoder. The following connections and signal sources can be assigned to the channels: the rear Neutrik combo sockets (XLR/jack), the front headset socket (3.5 mm TRRS), RØDE Wireless, Bluetooth®, USB1, USB2 and SMART Pad Audio. The two combo sockets can be used to connect (XLR) or electric guitars or line sources (jack). The ultra-low-noise high-gain preamps (up to 76 dB preamplification) deliver a crystal-clear audio signal - even with insensitive, dynamic speaker microphones. The required 48 V phantom power can be switched on for condenser microphones. If required, the mix-minus and ducking function can be activated, which is helpful when integrating external guests

Wireless

Thanks to wideband Bluetooth®, music and speech are received in first-class sound quality, and vice versa, the signal can also be output via an external Bluetooth speaker. There's also a built-in wireless receiver, allowing you to transmit directly from a RØDE Wireless ME, Wireless GO II, Wireless PRO transmitter or Interview PRO to the RØDECaster Duo White.

Recorder

an optional microSD card into the rear slot, the RØDECaster Duo White can be used as a standalone recorder. Alternatively, you can connect a suitable (sufficiently fast) USB-C storage device. To start recording, simply press the red REC button at the top left of the display. Recording can be done in stereo or multi-track.

you prefer, you can also use the RØDECaster Duo White as an audio interface and record to your computer.

Dual audio interface

The RØDECaster Duo White offers two independently usable audio interfaces. Two computers or two smartphones or a combination can be connected to the rear USB-C sockets (1 and 2) and integrated into the setup, including iOS devices thanks to MFi certification.

SMART pads

The six programmable SMART pads are used to start or play audio files and to trigger MIDI commands, voice FX, mixer actions, e.g. fade-in and fade-out, and other functions. Two bank change buttons provide access to 7 additional banks for a total of 48 actions. The SMART Pads can be assigned your own audio files using the free "RØDE Central" software, and the RØDECaster Duo White provides 4 GB of internal memory for this purpose. You can also "record" audio (the sum signal) directly onto the pads.

Signal processing and effects

All input signals (analog and digital) can still be processed extensively and can be refined separately with high-pass filter, de-esser, noise gate, compressor, 3-band EQ, Aphex Exciter and Aphex Big Bottom and arranged in the stereo panorama (Pan L/R). The RØDECaster Duo White also offers the studio effects Reverb and Delay (Echo), the voice effects Megaphone, Robot, Disguise and Pitch Shifter as well as the Aphex Compellor (Master Compressor) for the sum.

Power supply

Power is supplied via the included external power supply unit, which is connected to the third USB-C socket (next to the power switch). For mobile use of the RØDECaster Duo White, the power supply can simply be replaced by an optional 30 watt USB-C PD power bank
