I’m sorry but ain’t no one gonna talk about how soothing his voice is? 😂😂😂
I'm blushing ☺️
Will.I.AM DOUG Made fall asleep after 5 minutes
@@marcocorzani8381 😂 was the video that boring!
Finally a wonderfully clear, beautifully paced instruction video. Thank you so much Keith. So many tutorial videos on You Tube are spoken so quickly it's impossible to follow them in real time. But you have made this as smooth as silk! I easily repeated the steps as you went through them. I'll certainly be following you here! Well Done!
Thanks Michael. It so lovely for you to say so. There are lots more videos for you to enjoy on the main playlist. Spread the word.
Coolest voice and accent ever. Like a pirate giving a tutorial on an audio device.
Thanks man
Your voice is smooth as hell man. And hey solid review! Got this for Xmas and been playing around with the settings.
Thanks.
Are you having fun with it? Where can we hear the results?
My Rodecaster Pro should arrive next week. Hurray! I like that you remind folks that the music they play must be paid for, lots of vloggers and podcasters like to play fast and loose with that detail. If you're on a budget and can play music, or have some sort of music creation software, I recommend producing your own original music sound bite until you have the budget to step up.
Great advice Tim
I love this piece of gear. I bought one a few months ago and now I feel like I can finally build my show the way I envisioned. Being able to take live calls is the best feature for me.
Sorry Baby Crazy only getting this now. How did you get on?
Love this video! This help me put everything in order on how to utilize the Rodecaster! Defiantly, worth the purchase and as smooth as Keith spoke made me feel everything will work out fine! Thanks for this video!
Thanks so much Sadie. How did you get on with the purchase?
@@keithalexander5935 Everything went great with the purchase along with starting up my podcast. I'm still learning how to use the Rodecaster to it's full potential but I am enjoying every bit of it. Thanks for the checking in.
Casanova’s voice... you must be a smoooooth operator. 🤣. Thanks.
I'm blushing
This was soooooo helpful thank u so much, I want to start a singing channel so we are 1 step away, the camera
Im delighted. Best of luck with you new channel
Thank you. Beautifully explained Keith. Cant wait to get mine.
Thanks. You wont be sorry, its an amazing machine.
just got mine in yesterday
How did it go Field?
Keith Alexander just took it out of the box, I’m gonna try to get it hooked up later tonite after work. My plan is to record with it and edit with adobe audition. Now I’m using garage band for everything.
This video is AWSOME
THANK you. Lots more in the playlist, LOTS AND LOTS more to come.
I am still hesitating between zoom h6 + shure sm58 vs rodecaster pro + rode podmic. Which one do you recommander at this time ?
Great overview. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Spooks. Lots more in the main playlist "Perfecting Audio with Keith Alexander"
Great hearing a Dublin accent
Up the Dubs!
Keith Alexander Dubs 5 in a row and the culchies going nuts
Just to let you know Adorama also have a channel on Twitch called Adorama XP. I am LIVE on there every Wednesday looking at technology, techniques and lots more in between to help you get creative. Some weeks we bring it right back to the basics and other weeks we will deal with more advanced stuff. It is all led by the audience so join me on Adorama XP available from Twitch, Wednesdays 3pm EST/ 8pm GMT. See you there!
Thank you everyone for your comments. I love hearing from you all. Forgive me if there is a bit of a delay in getting back to you but I will.
Please add a few more channel’s 🔥
i can't find a way to use the device on an Xbox.
everything that comes from Rodecaster should be listed live in the Ingame-chat chat or Xbox party.
i used the TRRS output to microphone entrance on the gamepad. I did not use because there are extreme noise.
is there a solution?
Franke. I am sure they never envisioned it being used on the Xbox. Try it on your PC or Mac
Excellent
Thanks so much Dwain
Getting one, thank you
Thank you!!! Such a great video
Cheers Brandt. I'm glad you enjoyed. Lots more for you to enjoy in the main playlist.
I am thinking about purchasing this device and all the reviews and tutorials look great. My only question is with the 2.0 firmware update. I am unclear whether there exists an option to mute the speaker outputs automatically when enabling one of the mic channels. Coming from traditional radio, this is a standard feature on broadcast mixers so as to prevent feedback. It is also great as an indicator that the microphones are muted and hosts can hear commercials or music without necessarily wearing headphones.
You'd have to check the manual but I am sure you can. I don't have the machine with me so I cannot check. The headphone output 01 gives you all the other feeds without your guests hearing.
Why would the manufacturer release a product which had the noise gate filter iterate noise? At: 3:03.Why anyone use it? Thumbs up - good production quality.
Sorry about the late reply. A noise gate cuts out the room and ambient noise on the mic when you are not talking if you are recording in a noisy situation. They can work really well if used properly
how come I dont have the Rodecaster Pro multichannel input option on my laptop?
Did you update the Rode Firmware?
Hi Keith, great voice. played the Stardust Club in Artane many moons ago. Great town. Question: What lavalier are you using, and would you use it in a podcast? Good vocal sound!
Many many moons! Saramonic uwmic9. Great sound, amazing price
Not for a podcast. They have a great USB mic sm7000. If you have the money the shure sm7b or I use my darling Rode Nt55's for the live site on @adorama XP available from Twitch every Wednesday at 3pm EST and 8pm GMT
I have a RodCasterPro. Can I use Audacity to edit my podcast and if so what tools in Audacity are already covered by RodecastCasterPro setup I will not need to use in Audacity. I am just learning how to use Audacity as well as the RodeCasterPro. Thank you.
Hey Brendan. There are enough onboard treatments for the voice in the RodeCaster already. Use audacity to balance up your show and compress the final output which will be your 'master'
Great video, Keith :)
Thank so much, Richard.
Mine came last week. It’s fantastic. Podcast on the way...:)
@@ckrichardgray1 send us a link
My mixer is new and when we are recording the sound fades out or kinda like when you have noise cancellation on a phone. So when you talk its fine fine fine, you stop then start and its like the volume has been turned down then comes back up. I have not changed any settings, so I am confused.
Sound like a 'noise gate' is kicking in. it opens when it hears a certain level from your mic and closes when you stop talking. Check your settings you have the gate coming in way too slowly and the release is way too much.
Can you link to the previous Rodecaster video you make reference to?
Here ya go th-cam.com/video/zI7tRMIE-S8/w-d-xo.html
I have connected a dynamic microphone to the rodecaster pro (the microphone is not from the rode brand) however, when I hear my voice I realize that the sound is monophonic and not stereo ... how can I fix it?
Unless it is a specific stereo mic then yes you signal will be mono
Great video! I'm just wondering about the 3.5 Headphone out, is it some kind of a 'Master' preview? It would be great if you could also explain the mute/preview buttons on the channels too. Like which output do you need to be listening to to preview a track?
Rode has a video that covers this
Tom. Its a rough mix to you headphones so you can monitor everything going on in the show. The 3.5 on the front is for a spare set of headpones
So is this needed if I'm not live? I'm just starting my podcast, and I'm not going live yet.
Totally fine to record your podcast to a SD card or your computer
I really love these videos and I’m really interested in stuff like this, I hope to get a road castor pro soon for Christmas. I’m blind and would like to know if Road could put a firmware update into the machine to have accessibility voiceover to make it talk. My iPhone and iPad Pro have accessibility in them,, when you tap the screen once it will tell you what is there but when you double tap it it will click on the item that you want. I’m hoping they put accessibility into it especially into the touch screen part, for example if you tap the screen once it might say something like this, noise gate button, double tap to select. Then when you double tap it it will click on noise gate and it will say either noise gate off or noise gate on, that’s a lot easier for me and I’m sure it’s a lot easier for blind people everywhere who use that stuff. If Apple can make their products talk, then why can’t everyone else do the same thing.
What a brilliant idea! Everyone should have an option to implement accessibility. This machine does not have any dedicated accessibility. I'll try to get in touch with them and pass on your thoughts. If I hear back, I'll touch base.
Thanks for reaching out.
Keith Alexander thank you I really appreciate this, this means a lot to me.
@@agentdarkness4628 Hey. Sound is truly your experience, imagine if you could truly bring your experience to the people who make decisions on what looks good on their annual budget under accessibility! You might even change the world. You would certainly help others along the path.
From watching your channel I see there is a whole world of people whose medium is sound. Is there anything we can cover in the show to help anyone with your experience get into the world of sound production to allow you show the world your experience? Let me know as I will try to find systems that could help.
@@agentdarkness4628 So I just heard back from the CEO. Could you contact me through my website? I can forward you his comments.
Hello Keith and congratulations on the tutorial. Is Rodecaster Pro also suitable for a web radio? I will open it shortly and I will need a mixer for direct. Is this device sufficient or is it to be integrated into the mixer? Thanks for any reply
Sorry for the late reply. This would be perfect. Everything you could wish for right in the box.
Capt. Jack Sparrow a few years on after giving up booze and finding his Zen! Super calming to listen to :)
Thanks Andy. We now have a live show going out every wednesday at 3pm EST/ 8pm GMT for more calming, zen, fun learning.
A few years ON!!!!!!!!! He's pushing 60!
Thank you~
Cheers. I there are lots more videos for you to learn and enjoy in the "Perfecting Audio" playlist from Adorama
@@keithalexander5935 Cheers Keith I see the Perfecting Audio playlist too. I will save up for the RODECaster till then soaking up all the knowledge. From my hip hop days, I have a bit of audio knowledge but still learning :-)
@@cashino never stop learning
Is this better then the YAMAHA MG10 ?
Will the Rodecaster Pro work with a Windows machine too? All I ever see is a Macbook being hooked up to the
Rodecaster Pro. Thank you.
np kellogg I got one with windows it works well.
Erik Wright
Just getting to read this, and thank you for the answer. I appreciate it.
Hey NP. Sorry about the delay in getting back to you. Yes it will work with a PC/ windows machine.
Question: Is there a way to use the Rodecaster Pro with a Rode HS2 headset with built-in mic? I already have the hs2, is why I'm asking.
I have not come across the HS2. What do you generally plug it into?
Hey. If you enjoyed this video there are lots more in the ain "Perfecting Audio with Keith Alexander" playlist on the Adorama TV channel main page.
Outstanding brilliant. ◇€Z◇
Thanks Ernest
Another expensive toy, as in south america we say "zapatero a sus zapatos", rode makes good mics not another devices... example, pro sound in pod cast do not need mic process because it does audio processor in transmiter or in streaming tool or PC ...a lot of tools here are not usefull for a pro broadcast, plus the configuration is a really mess...
I like it. Works fine for those of us that don't want to mess with a ton of equipment and software.
And that is why so many podcasts sound like crap. All you have to do is use just enough processing on this brilliant piece of gear to bring each person's vocals to life and thicken things up. A little vocal processing during "live record" is just what most podcasters need to give a nice, professional, polished sound w/out needing to do post-processing.
@@marketweis thats totally who it is directed at. Not everyone is an experienced sound engineer. Good for you.
