IS RØDECASTER WORTH IT?
I have a lot on my plate now as I wait for my XLR cable and Røde mic mount to arrive. They should be here between July 8 and July 10. Once they do I'll be back to streaming.
Here is what I think about my gear:
The Rødecaster Pro II is the device out there.
It is the choice for streamers and podcasters who care about audio quality.
The Rødecaster Pro II is very powerful. It can be hard to learn.
Rødes tutorials for using two PCs are not great so you have to be patient and do your research.
I have found that using AI has been really helpful for troubleshooting.
This is especially true since I am still figuring out routing.
The Rødecaster Pro II is worth every penny.
Since it is a device you do not need to clutter your PC with extra apps.
You can control audio, instruments and even phone connections on the mixer. They have the app which the competition company do not have at all
I think it is way better than the GoXLR or Beacn Mix.
The team that was used to be behind the GoXLR made the Beacn Mix so they have the problems with reliability and software issue. Dont learn the hard way and find out. anyone i know have beacn audio interface and mic or mix create they have issue with it always. Not worth it.
If you are willing to put in the time to learn the Rødecaster Pro II is an upgrade.
The only bad thing about Røde is that they do not respond quickly. They never answer on Discord. I think it is better to email them directly and explain what you have tried so far. To be honest I did not even wait for them to get back to me. The AI helper figured things out for me faster than watching YouTube videos, which usually do not have clear instructions.
I use AI for help with technical issues. It is really helpful to be able to show pictures and ask questions, which makes setting things up a lot easier. I do not understand why people do not like AI. It is often a teacher than a person because it is always available to help you. AI can look at a lot of information and research quickly so you do not have to look through a lot of search results. I really like AI. I wish it was around when I was in school. AI are best tool. AI is a help and I have seen students and Twitch streamers use it to do their schoolwork and studies.
Røde really needs to get better at responding to people. The artificial intelligence technology has been very helpful, to me when I have problems. I like using intelligence because I do not want anyone else to touch my computer. The time I hired someone to fix my computer they made it worse and I had to send it to the factory to get it fixed.
I think some people do not like AI because they are upset that they are not getting hired to do jobs anymore. For example some artists come to my stream. Ask me to pay them to make pictures or emote for me.. I make my own art. I. Sketch my emote digital on my tablet. I even make Ai art for companies that use Ai. So why would I pay someone to do it when I can do it myself? It seems like these people are just mad because they are not getting work. Some of these artists are not even very good. They still want to charge a lot of money for their work.
They want to charge one hundred dollars for work that's not worth that much money. Each of them try self promotion, sometime i check their work after stream. i check their work and its ugly as hell. I ban them first. like take your self promo somewhere else dipshits.
I think this is a way for them to deal with their feelings. coping much..
anyways i highly recommend this Rødecaster pro 2. I bought in white color. Its so pretty with my marble table. Setup picture coming soon.
