Rode just released a major update to their RodeCaster series: The RodeCaster Video S. This compact unit is designed to replace your video capture card, audio interface, and video switcher all at once—for just $499.
In this video, I break down exactly what is new with the "S" model and how it compares to the original RodeCaster Video. I show you how I am using it to control my entire studio setup (cameras, audio, and live switching) and demonstrate features like NDI, ISO recording, and the built-in wireless audio receivers.
In this review, you will learn:
The Inputs: 3 HDMI + 1 USB-C + NDI capabilities.
The Audio: World-class preamps and built-in wireless receivers for Rode mics.
The Workflow: How to record ISO channels for every camera simultaneously.
The Differences: Video S vs. Original RodeCaster Video (What did they cut?).
The Competition: Why this might kill the ATEM Mini Pro ISO for solo creators.
Our mission here at Think Media is to help purpose-driven entrepreneurs go full-time doing what they love and making an impact through the power of video.
