RØDE has announced the RØDECaster Video Core, a major new addition to its video production lineup, alongside a defining new integration capability that connects the console with select RØDECaster audio interfaces: RØDECaster Sync. Hot on the heels of the release of the RØDECaster Video S in November last year, the latest offering in RØDE’s growing range of all-in-one video and audio production consoles delivers the most streamlined solution yet for video podcasters, solo creators and live streamers at any professional level.
Designed specifically for creators working in modular or software-driven workflows, the RØDECaster Video Core offers the same advanced production power as the flagship RØDECaster Video. Combining advanced video switching, recording and streaming with a fully integrated professional audio mixer, it offers a flexible foundation for creating broadcast-quality content across video podcasts, live streams and studio productions in a compact desktop-friendly unit.
Launching alongside it, RØDECaster Sync is an innovative new feature that seamlessly connects the RØDECaster Video Core with the RØDECaster Pro II and RØDECaster Duo audio interfaces, creating a single unified production hub. With RØDECaster Sync, audio-first creators can expand into video with zero fuss, scaling their setup effortlessly while maintaining the studio-grade sound and intuitive control that has made RØDECaster the creative industry standard.
“The launch of the RØDECaster Video Core and RØDECaster Sync marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of content creation,” said RØDE CEO Damien Wilson. “With the RØDECaster range, every creator, no matter their skill level or workflow, is supported by a complete ecosystem that makes professional production more accessible than ever. As always, RØDE continues to set the industry benchmark for tearing down barriers to democratise content creation worldwide.”
VIDEO UNLOCKED
Designed for creators working in both software-based and modular production environments, the RØDECaster Video Core delivers a seamless new way to bring professional video into any audio-first workflow. Compact and streamlined, it offers the same octa-core processor as the flagship RØDECaster Video, making high-end switching, streaming and recording more accessible than ever.
For creators who prefer software-based control, the RØDECaster Video Core integrates seamlessly with the RØDECaster App. This free dedicated companion app provides extensive control over every aspect of production, allowing users to switch between video sources, design custom multi-camera layouts with the scene builder and mix pristine audio with the intuitive mixer. With advanced configuration available at every level, the RØDECaster App gives productions a professional polish with total flexibility.
RØDECaster Sync takes this flexibility even further, introducing an innovative new way for the RØDECaster Video Core to integrate with compatible RØDECaster audio consoles, creating one unified production setup. By simply using a USB-C cable to connect the RØDECaster Video Core with the RØDECaster Pro II or Duo, creators can manage both audio and video from a single surface, expand their inputs and outputs, enable shared mixing and recording and unlock advanced switching capabilities that scale effortlessly as their studio grows.
BROADCAST-READY OUT OF THE BOX
With its compact footprint, the RØDECaster Video Core delivers uncompromising broadcast-quality production power. It supports switching between up to four video sources with fully customisable scenes, smooth transitions, graphic overlays and multi-source layouts – providing professional results without the complexity of traditional broadcast hardware.
With three Full HD HDMI inputs featuring auto frame rate conversion, configurable HDMI output monitoring, a configurable USB-C expansion port and support for network cameras via up to four NDI inputs, the RØDECaster Video Core adapts to virtually any video setup, from podcasts to live studio productions.
In terms of audio, it brings the studio-grade sound RØDE is renowned for, featuring two Neutrik combo inputs with ultra-low-noise, high-gain Revolution Preamps
for pristine capture from microphones, instruments or line sources. Each of the nine stereo audio channels is enhanced with world-class APHEX processing – including EQ, compression, noise gating, de-essing and legendary effects like Aural Exciter, Big Bottom and Compellor – ensuring every production sounds as polished as it looks.
ANY CREATOR, ANY SETUP
Whether live streaming or recording for post-production, the RØDECaster Video Core integrates effortlessly into any creative setup. Creators can stream directly to YouTube, Twitch and other major platforms via Ethernet, or record straight to an external USB drive or SSD, with the option to capture each video and audio source independently through isolated (ISO) recording for maximum flexibility in the edit.
With support for a wide range of modern video inputs, from HDMI cameras to network sources and USB devices, the RØDECaster Video Core is built to adapt as productions grow. It also pairs seamlessly with the free RØDE Capture app, allowing creators to turn an iPhone into a high-quality dual-camera source for wireless multi-angle streaming, perfect for podcasts, interviews and solo content creation.
Compact, powerful and designed for the realities of today’s creators, the RØDECaster Video Core delivers a complete professional production solution without the traditional barriers of broadcast complexity.
The RØDECaster Video Core will be available worldwide to pre-order for US$599.
