    The article may be very good, I don't know yet... what is terrible is the care they do not give to the articles in the best buy stores - on two occasions I returned the same product because the device was damaged, and the article also came opened and pretended that they were new... I think they are items that people return and then best buy wants to deceive you by saying that they are new... it is a terrible service I do not recommend you buy this item at all since they deliver it to you damaged in the store or they send it to you just as damaged.

    This is a great product for anyone looking for quality audio in their live streaming. I recommend buying the cover to prevent dust although it is sold separately.

    This has changed the industry standard for the better, the interface is simpler than most, it’s very customizable, and it has fun features. Because of the ease of access and lowering the price of entry to advanced audio solutions, it deserves 5 stars; be aware though, there are cons! I am on my second unit, and will be using my protection plan again before expiry. As “cheap” as this is for the functionality, there are some quality control problems, such as significant fade of the buttons, and also discoloration. On both of my units I have had sound pads fail as well, despite using them very sparingly. The software also leaves a bit to be desired. Twice I have had firmware issues as well, in that they have impacted the sound quality of my show fairly significantly, to the point that my show needs to be recalibrated for sound on occasion. Again, this mixer has changed the game and has no equal at this price point…But it could really use some polish and better attention to detail.

    I've used the Rodecaster Pro 1 for years, after using a variety of high end sound mixing boards, and love the power and simplicity. The Pro II just takes all that's good about the Rodecaster Pro and improves upon it. Access to soundpad banks is easier, the electronics used to give you great sound are a next generation, plus many simple but effective UI improvements. Highly recommended. BTW - make sure as soon as you start it up to check for firmware upgrades, Rode is putting those out rapidly.

    I recently purchased the Rosecaster mixer online from Best Buy, and the whole process was incredibly easy and fast. The mixer itself is amazing—clean sound, intuitive controls, and a solid build that feels professional. It has made recording so much smoother and more enjoyable. Definitely worth the purchase and highly recommended!

    This device packs a lot of functionality in a small package. Despite that, I think it is seriously over priced. This unit is filled with functionality to bring a lot to podcasting. Somethings about the design trouble me. A part of the unit generates a lot of heat, and some users report the top metal panel coming unglued. The latest firmware update didn’t add much that is really useful, and now the de-easer doesn’t work. So, lots of features in a small package for podcasters, software updates seem to lack regression testing and break as much as they fix. The warranty last a good long while, but I fear many of us will need to take advantage of that and ship our units to California for repair. It’s a nice idea, and packs a lot inside, and if the company can get their programming act together and fix things instead of breaking things it might almost be worth the money. Would I buy it again? Not unless the company gets their programming and build quality issues together.

    One stop shop for an XLR interface and mixer. This thing is awesome! I use it for live streams and producing videos. No more sound post editing. I just EQ it straight grime the RCP2. Constant firmware updates with new features is a plus!

    Great option for mixing a podcast or doing simple audio recordings. I’ve used more advanced consoles at work that are better but this is perfect for a smaller production or hobbyist. This one has a lot of nice upgrades over version 1.

    What I wanted from the start was to be able to connect my headset, mic, and have all my audio come thru one device. I was able to achieve this while using the RCP2. I also love that that you can map Midi keys to the SmartPads, I am able to Start/End wither my Recordings/Streams all on this one device. Another amazing point about the device is how you can pop in a MicroSD card in the back and plug in the device into an outlet and begin a Mobile Podcast if you wanted, you have 4 XLR inputs along with 4 headset ports if you had multiple guests. TL:DR if you want an amazing all in one mixer this is it. I am able to control my streams/audio/game colume/chat volume all at my fingertips.
