This all-in-one console simplifies video and audio production for creators, offering powerful video switching, recording, and studio-grade audio control. Its intuitive design features a touchscreen and rotary encoder, allowing easy management of video and audio sources. Connect seamlessly with HDMI, USB-C, and NDI inputs. Enjoy wireless microphone integration and advanced audio processing. Stream and record directly with comprehensive scene-building, auto-switching, and remote control via the RODECaster App.
Designed as a streamlined version of its predecessor the RODECaster Video, the RODECaster Video S All-in-One Audio/Video Console offers the same, powerful video switching and recording, as well as studio-grade audio control for podcasters, streamers, and solo creators. The console offers intuitive control over both video and audio sources with its onboard controls, 2" touchscreen display, and rotary encoder. A variety of connectivity options, including HDMI and USB-C ports, NDI inputs, and both wired and wireless network connections. Add the RODECaster Video S to your preexisting RODE audio ecosystem using the USB-C audio ports or RODE Central software for advanced device configuration.
The RODECaster Video S features nine mix-effect layers that can simultaneously display in both preview and program views. Two downstream keyers toggle overlays and logo, two chroma-keyers toggle different backgrounds, and one luma keyer and two media players can play simultaneous MP4 video, PNG/JPG photos, or WAV audio from a USB SSD or flash drive.
Multiview allows you to visualize the program and preview, all the live inputs with scene and media thumbnails, the audio mixer and channel status, and recording/network/storage status, as well as runtime, date, and time information. Nondestructive setup means the process can be done live or configured as a saved scene without interrupting the flow of your production.
Two studio-grade combo XLR-1/4" jacks on the console are equipped with low-noise, high-gain Revolution Preamps to ensure pristine audio capture from XLR microphones and instruments.
Mix and process audio onboard using the touchscreen and rotary encoder or the software mixer in RODE Central.
The USB4 port on the RODECaster support select RODE USB microphones including the RODECaster Pro II and Duo.
The RODECaster Video S prioritizes scene-based switching with an intuitive control layout. This gives users quicker access to the tools they need to create dynamic content without needing to access complicated settings. The front panel of the device includes a wide variety of controls specific to certain features.
Automatic chroma keying makes replacing backgrounds with media or live video inputs a breeze. Apply transparency to use the input in scenes or with various backgrounds. Choose between blue and green screen with advanced controls.
Intelligent auto-switching provides seamless and creative hands-free switching between video sources. Any audio input can be linked to any video source, allowing intelligent level detection to automatically trigger switching when your talent is speaking to follow the conversation. Switching priorities and screen time algorithms provides a natural feel, as if a producer or technical director were calling the shots.
Stream up to 100 Mb/s directly using RTMP/RTMPS to major platforms like YouTube, Twitch, and Facebook Live via integrated Wi-Fi 6 or Ethernet connection. Real-time signal health reporting is displayed via multiview. Up to four NDI sources, such as PTZ cameras, can be input with a single NDI output via Ethernet streaming. The Video S can also utilize dual-cam streaming using the free RODE Capture app for iOS.
Record directly to an external USB storage device or the internal 24GB media storage, including isolated (ISO) recording for more flexible postproduction workflows. You can record your program feed as an H.264/AVC MP4 file with embedded AAC stereo mix. Multiple audio tracks can be recorded as nine independent stereo WAV files.
Use the RODE Central companion software when connected to a computer to adjust more advanced features of the RODECaster Video S. Construct scenes using remote control, configure automatic switching based on audio inputs, mix audio, and configure streaming settings and profiles as well as adjust advanced settings and customizations. The software supports macOS and Windows operating systems.
The scene builder in RODE Central allows you to create a completely customized scene from scratch. Select a RODE preset with default layouts and themes for your keying backgrounds or video borders. A live RTMP feed will update to show your changes in real-time. You can save up to five scenes and switch between them instantly at the press of a button.
For setups where you can't be close to the console, the RODECaster Video S boasts complete wireless remote control via the RODECaster App, allowing you to switch inputs, adjust settings and configure complex scenes from your computer.
