Pros: -Very simplistic, very lenient learning curve -Build quality -very strong and clean preamps -XLR connections can also be used for instruments -You can store up to 24 sound effects (gimmicky, but fun) -You can now use the sound effects pads to be a MIDI controller -The clean preamps and onboard sound processing is stellar Cons: -New firmware is great but still no dedicated EQ -There is a way to 'EQ' your audio through this unit but it's tied to the Aphex Exciter (which can be a challenge to set properly) & Bottom settings (which can sometimes add too much bass) -EXPENSIVE. Very expensive. I -There are things that the GoXLR can do that this can't do, and that's do onboard EQ. Why there is still no dedicated EQ for the RODECaster Pro at this price is mind boggling Overall Thoughts: If you can stomach the price to own one of these things, it makes your existing XLR peripherals sound even better. There is a 'novice' mode so that you won't have to be an audio engineer to perfect your voice, but tinkering with the settings in advance mode would make this tool even more useful. The price is still something that is hard to stomach but once you own it, it's very hard to return it or wonder why you never bought one in the first place

This had made recording my podcast so much easier. I cohost the comedy podcast, We Family Son!! And this how reduced editing and uploading times exponentially. Sound quality is very good. And very easy to use. Everything is done on the RODECaster Pro. From intro and outro being saved to the soundboard. To adding new sounds in general. Using your phone to play audio or recording phone calls adds a lot of content for podcasts. Also allows for guest features. Allows up to 4 mics and headphones. Very compact and easy to transport. Has helped in the production to allow us to focus on promotion more. Transfers to your computer in mp3 format which makes it easy to upload to SoundCloud, which is what We use, and other base sites as well. Go follow us @ We Family Son!! On all platforms and Instagram to get a preview of the sound and features...and also if you love to laugh.

I use this for handling microphone inputs for training sessions and meetings in our company green room. We use in conjunction with OBS and having everything run through one board is so much easier. Slides are smooth, and the separate headphone outputs are a plus, and connecting to a phone via Bluetooth is very easy. Built in filters on microphones and the sound pads add a little something extra to the sessions with sound effects. Very happy with the purchase.

This audio interface is the best ever!!! Simple to set, simple to use, and super sophisticated with great features. My wife and I started our podcast in July, and we made the best decision. The price might be “expensive,” but it is worth every penny. Are you a podcaster or thinking about starting a podcast? Check out the quality of our podcast.

I splurged on this when I decided to start an online radio show in 2021 - and I'm glad I did. I absolutely love this thing. I plug the power supply in, plug my mic in via XLR cable, and make sure the Rodecaster is connected to my PC - and I'm ready to record. You can customize the sound pad through the Rodecaster app you download from Rode's website. The Bluetooth feature is great, the mixer sliders work well, and the interface is easy to use. My biggest issue with the Rodecaster is the SD compartment. It doesn't want to accept my SD card - despite Rode's website listing that type of SD card as compatible. I can easily buy a new card to see if that would work, but I wasted money on the ones I already have. This also means I have to keep the Rodecaster connected to a computer in order to record instead of being able to record directly to an SD card. I love my Rodecaster, but wish the SD card reader was better.
