This is the only video that actually showed me how to use the rodecaster pro. The reason I didn't buy one for so long is because one its expensive and 2 it looked complicated to use. Now I'm willing to buy one in the future as its not as complicated as I once thought
VERY WONDERFUL STUFF. AS BEFORE NO OTHER CHANNELS ARE SHOWING THE HARWARE, HOOKING UP THE HARDWARE, CONFIGURING THE PODCASTER AND SHOWING THE SETUP AND USE OF THE SOFTWARE. THIS IS FABULOUS, AND I'M VERY EXCITED TO FIND YOUR TEACHINGS.
I don't have an RCP yet, God knows how badly I want one and I've played different scenarios in my head over and over on how it'll work...in place of the BUTT though, I have a Rocket Broadcaster Pro installed...the RCP updates are so right on the mark and I expect more. Thanks, James. Simplified and enlightening.
Thanks James! I didnt think it was that easy to loop back into the laptop for BUTT. I will definitely try this setup soon! Awesome Video , Very informative!!!!
Thanks glad you found it useful
I have a RCP, and broadcast on YT & FB. But now looking at internet radio. Thanks so much for bringing the RCP to the radio broadcast strategy.
Thanks for watching, it's a great mixer.
I've enjoyed your video presentation i bought a rc pro for a web radio station but then I got thrown under the bus, so now I'm setting up my own web radio station.
So thank you for doing such a great job. I did notice back ground music which I found to be very distracting from your presentation.
Thank you lots James. I will be starting up soon with your team's help for sure. Your video was really helpful
The monitor "kill" feature is SKITTLES! - Great stuff!
Great Tips, another is using the Smart Phone output TTRS as a normal LINE IN to the Rodecaster Pro. Yes, it's Brilliant! You can bring in computer audio or other device audio CD Players, IPAD Audio too and leaving USB free for Skype etc. RodeCasterPro is incredible.
At last someone has put a video out showing exactly what I need to know, confirming a purchase of this product. Many thanks from me but a little less from my wallet!
Great tutorial - in depth and really useful. Thanks !
dude you were so insightful!! Loved this video it helped me a lot
Glad it helped!
This was great. As a former internet radio owner, I can appreciate your set up with the roadcaster pro. I have entertained the idea of going back to broadcasting live.. I used SAM Broadcaster pro, and can't remember the company that I payed a monthly fee to cover royalties.. Thanks for the tutorial..
Can you share any details?
Great video with tons of good information. I’m a new subscriber now. Thanks
Awesome, thank you!
Thanks James this has been so helpful i have an online radio and i have just bought the RODECaster the question is can i use zoom as i do now to connect to my guests because i also stream on RUclips and Facebook.
Big thanks James!
Hi James, great video tutorial on Rodecaster Pro.. I'm a new subscriber. Do you have a video of you streaming with Rodecaster? If not I think it would be interesting to see how you use it.
Great video. I figured that with the usb butt would pick it up and send it out. How are the quarter inch outputs though? I wonder if they will work when hooked up to a transmitter. The most impressive thing I like about the unit is the Aphex Processing. That in itself is well over 1000 usd for a good entry level processor. Having it built in is a nice radio broadcast feature.
Greetings! This is super helpful! I'd definitely appreciate a windows tutorial as I'm new to this and technologically challenged lol! Thank you in advance!
The process is really similar on windows. Regardless of what software you’re using - just set it to output to the rodecaster sound device and it’ll then route to the USB fader. I hope this helps!
Rodecaster pro is a great tool for radio stations, audio & visual studios. I just bought one for my radio station which will be launched in January.
Thanks James
whats it called??
Hows the station going?
Fantastic video, thank you for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
Excellent! I want one! 👍🏾
Thank you for this video. There is one thing i like to know. If the broadcast software on the computer have 2 players and a cartwall with jingles ans player A is onair can you pre-listing player B or the cartwall?
works, keep up the good work man
Glad I could help!
Hello James! Thanks for taking the time to create and post this video. I have a couple questions. Would this same principle be used in my case?. I am currently using Sam Broadcaster and the stream comes straight from the built-in encoder in Sam. I understand how Ito connect everything , but I’m thinking that I would need a Mix Minus channel so that Sam Broadcaster doesn’t feed audio back to itself. If I just used it only for play out, and I used BUTT for the encoding, will I lose the ability to have the Album Art displayed on the Web Player? Also, do you know of any audio mapping setting inside Sam Broadcaster?Thanks in advance for your tine!
Brian
ITS REALLY WORKED LOL THANK YOU DUDE
Very cool , sir, I could have this one; see you around, right here watching da ROMA con AMOR!
👏
Hi has the fader used for music got an auto start switch in it. Cheers
Thank you, for this video, "Kentucky" USA
Thank you James .
Got any questions about connecting the Rodecaster Pro to Radio.co? 🎤
Drop a comment below and I'll do my best to help you out!
For Windows users, here is another video:

Many thanks James. Would the Rodecaster Pro be the best product for me to record my weekly music based radio show as I would live?
Hey James thanks for the tutorial. Would these be the same steps if I’m using cleanfeed for example to have guests live with the rodecaster pro?
Yes imagine so. Test it out before going live or recording in production.
How would I connect a DJ mixer or Controller to the Rodecaster Pro to get all the features? Thanks for the tips I really thinking of getting 1
@@topkatamazona814 Guess it will depend from setup to setup. Normally the DJ controller is a USB controller for the software. So you'd still configure the main output to the rodecaster from within the software. Otherwise, you could always connect them via an audio cable.
What about the ducking feature does it also duck the output of the music on the USB channel for doing talk overs for me that is a gamechanger?
Hola , la música no se corta cuando habilito el micrófono y los settings están como usted lo explica en el video, que puede ser?
Superb rev!
Thanks!
Great video. My question was how the monitor speaker interacts with the mic during a live stream. I use Mixx and it has a mic button that I normally click to activate the mic. When using the Rodecaster Pro, is the mic always live and is controlled by the slider. Up would kill the monitor. No need to click the Mixx mic button on the screen? Thanks
So what if you have a live dj on the show with you is it the same steps plug the dj controller into your laptop and plug the rodecaster pro into the laptop also and just make sure the output sound from the dj software is going into the rodecaster pro
Great tutorial! Love the explanation of the monitor speaker feature. Would you happen to know if the 'ducking' feature - which I know works to duck the other mic channels - also works to lower the output volume of the music from the line input feed when the presenter is talking on channel 1? Or do you have to use the fader to lower the volume of the music when the presenter is talking? Thanks.
That’s a legitimate question regarding the ducking feature. I believe it only lowers all other mic inputs by 30 % compared to the host mic channel on fader 1. Bur you can configure that value in the settings. 30 % is a good value, though.
The music or smart pads or phone inputs. Are they affected by the ducking as well? I‘m not sure. I‘ve seen a guy on Tube who configured smart pad 1 with s latched ducking effect. So every time he presses that pad the ducking is in effect. Press again and levels return to how they are set up. Problem seems to be that the mic input must either be live all the time, muted or my brain is going to critical mass now. An info by James might be beneficial.
I broadcast live using the RCP and the same method as shown here.
Can you tell me how do you connect the Rodecaster to the MacBooks USB for the audio out. Is there some kind of interface needed? Thanks guys
This was an awesome tutorial. I set it up just like in the Video and works PERFECT. Only one issue I have - I use Sam's Broadcaster for my Music , I cannot figure out how to get my Song Info to stream by setting it up this way. I need for my Song Titles to Display from Sam's Broadcaster if anyone has any ideas that would be great. Thank you!
...Have you checked out Radio.co yet?
Hi, just want to know, what about the music you've played in the radio, this can be also uploaded in the youtube without any copyright strike?
How do you hook up a dj controller to rodecaster pro to broadcast a live stream
Okay so I am so lost. The video is amazing, however I am hearing all things from my headphones. Is that because I dont have external Speakers?
I have my phone connected to my RODECATER PRO so when I play Spotify it is coming out of my headphones also.
Does the fader, that is connected to e.g. VirtualDJ, provide a faderstart?
As a brooadcaster I don't push fader up , it set and i Use On of button , would it mute as well?
Hello. I have just bought the rodecaster for an online radio. I conected everything as the video and then downloaded OBS to test it. When i selected the audio source on OBS to take sound from the Rodecaster i found a problem that i couldnt resolve. Eveything that comea in to obs from rodecaster is pre-faded? Is there a reason? How am i supposed to do a live stream if all yhe channels are pre-faded? It seems very strange.. any othera found the same problem?
Can you use a dj controller also with the rodecaster for online radio?
Hey Jamed, Can I use rodecaster pro for FM radio? How can I link the rodecaster to a mixer?
James. Is there a option for using the computer programs that can work with a Linux system? I use Linux Ubuntu and Wine which allows Windows programs to run in a Linux environment sometimes does not work well at times. SO is there a program that runs on a Debian setup or do I need to get a Windows PC for the community station I am setting up?
Would this work on RUclips live with streamyard so gues can hear my music through laptop
How do I activate the low music feature when speaking? start button side shin
What is the microphone boom arm seen in this video
Absolutely the best
Can you please make a video on how to set up to broadcast live with sam broadcaster pro please
Hello I’m trying to windows but the butt software I could find rodacaster pro stereo.can you help me please?
Hello James, i’m currently starting a online radiostation with the rodecaster. Also using virtual dj and But. The only problem I have is that I only receive the music from VirtualDJ and not the signals/output from my mics in BUT. My setup is simulair to yours.
Have you got any idea what the problem can be?
Hi tell me something, I tried the same thing, however, when I lower my volume and speak to my mic, the volume is still up in virtual dj. Have you allready tried it live?
Thank you great video you was really helpful.
I have a Rodecaster Pro and for the microphone I would like to use also my compressor DBX 286s. How can I do this ?
You would just route the output of the DBX into one of the Rode Mic inputs. Make sure you turn off all the processing settings on rodecaster.
What cords do I need to feed though the computer
Great tutorial but how do you connect this Device to Radioboss ?
Can you keep the rodecaster pro II on 24 hrs.?
Do you need a mixer to run software
Great tutorial....professional and detailed however this service not available in the EU?? I tried to DL BUTT however app will not open. I'm running OS 10.13.6.
10.13? We are on 10.15 now mate probably time to update. This video was filmed in the UK and BUTT is written by. German developer so presumably it is fine in the EU... if you can’t install BUTT maybe contact the developer:
danielnoethen.de/butt/
Excellent
thank you bro thank you
Hi I just signed my Radio. Co free trial and ready to move on and all inn. Super excited. Also I have the Rode Rode caster Pro. Question. Where were connected your headphones?? To the Rodecaster Pro or to the speakers?? When you fade up your microphone to mute the monitors?
Awesome news, let me know how you get on with radio.co!
The headphones are connected through the Rodecaster Pro 🎧
what is the latency rating if i wanted to use the feed to jam with a band in another location... 5 to 30 ms is tolerable 50 to 100ms is impossible?
1:07 Yes, please do a windows tutorial using Serato DJ! 🎧💪💯
I've already done a Windows tutorial - it's live on the channel. I can't create different tutorials for each DJ software as there are too many - however, the principles are largely the same across any software.
Great video! So, I just got a RODECaster Pro and, can you tell me how do I get the RODECaster Companion App??
Download from the Rode website.
Great video James,
I am using the exact set up with my iMac but for some reason when I am going in through usb from the iMac to the rodecaster pro, it won’t then relay this to BUTT unless I use the Bluetooth route? .. as in BUTT won’t pick up the music on the usb slider, rodecaster pro selected in BUTT as the recorder sound.. Any ideas?
Cheers
No sorry - maybe consider contacting Rode technical support.
Looking forward:}
I bought soft soft today!
@James Mulvany is it possible to use this setup to add a 5-second or 10-second broadcast delay to give you time to catch any possible swearing before it is livestreamed?
There aren't any delay features built into the rodecaster.
Hi, what was that USB device you had (the blue) one to connect the Rodecaster Pro and what other cables will I need? Do you have the Amazon link please?
That's just a USB-C dongle/adaptor for the macbook. You can get them on Amazon etc. You could just use a USB-C cable though as thats what's on the back of the Rodecaster but we didn't have one to hand on this shoot.
Can you use Bluetooth for your radio 📻 station?
it work on my pc thx bro vеry much
This looks like a really good option for an affordable and easy broadcast console. My question is about the little screen on the RCP. Does it turn itself off when it's not used for a certain amount of time? I'd want to run playout software from my own computer through the RCP, which means it would probably need to remain powered on around the clock, and I'd be worried about screen burn-in.
No, don't think there is an option to do this. I don't think screenburn is much of a problem on LCD's as much these days? We're not in the 90s now Jeff 😂 I guess it might take a few years, but then for the $600 price you could just replace it
Thank you for making this video! Is there a performance difference between charging the Broadcaster using the DC1-USB and the USC type C? What happens if both wires are connected simultaneously? Can the DC1-USB power supply be plugged into an outlet?
To be honest, I've only ever use it connected to a power outlet. I did get sent a DC1-USB but couldn't get it to boot up when I tried connecting via phone charger or power bank. So I'm not sure how useful it is - perhaps needs a higher power output than the power sources I tried. I'm sure if you look on the RODE website you'll be able to find technical specs/requirements.
Thanks for the tutorial. I have a question, is a there a way to reproduce the side-chain compression (when the host talk, the music gain drop down to a certain point but stay on) which is very present in radio studio
Probably not.
The RØDECaster Pro offers ducking for channel 1 only. You must activate it in Audio>Processing>Ducking.
Hi James
Is there a Mark button to set marks for specific events or phases of the podcast during recording?
No the unit doesn't have such a button
What about royalties, marketing, revenue etc?
Hi James. Using Serato dj Pro, can you mix 2 tracks as I only see one USB fader?
Only has one USB fader / channel. Hopefully RODE could fix this in future but for now - the work around would be to use another sound card and route your 2nd input into one of the other channels (either the 3.5mm aux or one of the XLR mic inputs)
it would be very useful to know how you do a broadcast with all the guests at home using zoom and the host working on MIXXX and RODE PROCASTER. How do we adress sound from zoom or other video-conference softwares to MIXXX, and have guests listening to the music when mics are off?
Afraid the RODEcaster isn’t really designed to do this. You Probably need a mixer with more channels and a good multiple channel audio interface to achieve that. Or a good digital broadcast console such as Axia which will give you greater flexibility but ultimately you’ll need to invest more for this kind of setup.
Hi..watching ur channel.
Small RUclipsr it's me..
But would like to ask how much would be my spend for complete all equipments..
Coz I'm planing to have my own studio for Filipino lol ve story..
Do you have to set the rcp usb to multi track to allow streaming to butt and also playing back from virtual DJ. At the same time.
No don't think so
I'm using an IMAC, so what dj software can I use? Radio DJ isn't for Mac, so what would be a good choice? I appreciate your input!
I have RadioDJ 2.0.0.6 running in a Windows-10 virtual machine thanks to the app Parallels, which translates between the two systems, including USB. No idea whether it would interface to this mixer though.
Maybe it’s asked already,but what version of butt you are using?
I use butt also but my meter section still are the round led one.
I couldn’t zoom in to see it ,thanks anyway.
Nice and clear tutorial 👍
Just make sure you’re using the latest version - which can be downloaded here:
danielnoethen.de/butt/
Great video. Do I still need a software like BUT to broadcast to Radio.com. Isn't the Radio.co Broadcaster suitable for that? Does BUT add anything that I'm still missing? Thanks!
Of course you can use the Radio.co desktop broadcaster for Windows, help.radio.co/en/articles/3139189-radio-co-broadcaster-for-windows.
Some people prefer BUTT - it works on Mac and Linux too.
Here is a Windows tutorial with the Radio.co software and Rodecaster:

I'm getting the Rode Podcaster to start an internet radio station, but I am wondering what virtual dj I would need. I plan on playing music, jingles, etc. I will be getting a business license, and licensing to play commercial music. Can you tell me what Virtual DJ package I would need? or an alternative? Thank you, from Las Vegas, Nevada!
Yes - if you’re starting an online radio station, I recommend using radio.co to power your station and automate it 24/7
Nice tips mate. Thank you. The big question is though, how do you build an audience?
Great question! I'll be releasing a video tonight that can help with that. Stay tuned 👀
@@JamesMulvanyTV Definitely! looking forward to it. Have a good one.
merci beaucoup a toi :))
This good go on
Hey James!
Is it easy to record a skype/zoom/ ms teams call using the RODECaster? If so how is it done since I'm new to the equipment.
You could have Skype running on your PC which in turn is connected to the RodeCaster via the USB connection, or you can alternately run Skype on your smart phone and have it feeding into the RodeCaster via Bluetooth. Both options will work very well and the audio quality over Skype can be very acceptable.
hi like to is this free to make radio 📻 station in India or with License in India want ur help
Hey James, thanks for the video. I have a quick question for you. How you are managing music while you are on air with RodeCaster Pro? For normal radio stations, while speaker is talking, music is automatically decreasing like a backround music and increasing again when the speaker stop talking. Best.
The RØDECaster Pro offers ducking for channel 1 only. You must activate it in Audio>Processing>Ducking.
I’d get a program like MegaSeg to handle the music. It’s a complete radio automation package for not a lot of money. Virtual DJ isn’t really good for running a set up where you need playlist support and automatic fades in the app.
Thankyou sir.
Most welcome
How to get phone calls using either Bluetooth or the 3.5mm jack using rode caster pro using radioboss application
Same principles apply. Doesn't really need another video. Just set the output of your application to the RCP channel.
Does anyone know how to connect Rodcester pro to Sam broadcaster
Great video. Although I really do not understand the simple part...
I've always used 2 x faders for each track on dj daw, 1 x fader for headphone.
How can you get by with just 1 fader ?
Maybe I'm missing something ?
Correct. One of the limitations of the rodecaster is it will only allow one output via USB on ONE fader. It's not designed to be a DJ mixer as such. You can get by on one fader as loads of software will handle the mixing for you. But if you don't like it go complain to them... not me, I didn't make this device - just trying to help as let's be honest - there isn't much else on the market of this calibre vs cost 😃shame they don't have more USB/Soundcard connectivity on pioneer decks etc.
@@JamesMulvanyTV James not complaining, was unsure if I myself had it wrong, your review is spot on.
I'm looking for something in that price range which has 2 x faders, compression, record and pre fader.
Thanks for reply.
Hi James. Can I connect another audio interface, such as the Zoom Podtrak P8 and it would give the same results as the Rodecaster Pro?
Think you should be fine with a Podtrak. I've not tried the Zoom P8 yet but hoping to get one for review soon.
