RØDECaster Pro Multitrack Recording Is Here

US A major firmware update has added the feature to the podcast production console 28/02/19

We told you this was in the pipeline in a report from the NAMM show and now RØDE Microphones has officially announced that the world’s first fully integrated podcast production console, the RØDECaster Pro, now features multitrack recording alongside a suite of new features introduced today in the first major firmware update since its release in December 2018. Here's the details in the company's own words...

The RØDECaster Pro’s new functions featured in the 1.1.0 firmware update include:

Multichannel recording via USB output: stereo mix + individual sources
Multichannel outputs can be switched to be pre or post audio processing
Improved screen UI for easier navigation
Colour-coded microphone channel selection, which simplifies the input selection and effects/settings modification
Switchable mix-minus on USB main output, for eliminating feedback loops when using computer-based communication apps.

HOW DOES THE MULTITRACK WORK?
The RØDECaster Pro will now record 14 tracks to your computer’s recording software via the USB output. These tracks are:
• 2 tracks (stereo left and right) ‘live mix’, as featured on the RØDECaster Pro since its release
• A mono track for each of the 4 microphone inputs
• 2 tracks (stereo left and right) each for the USB, 3.5mm TRRS, Bluetooth and sound-effects-pad channels

To activate multitrack output, simply access the ‘Advanced’ settings in the ‘Hardware’ section of the RØDECaster Pro’s touchscreen interface. From there, a single switch engages multitrack. You can record all channels at either pre or post effects. A stereo mix will also record to the microSD card.
