RØDECaster Pro II is now available at Mascom International for KSh 90,000, ships with four Revolution Preamps rated at 76dB gain and -131.5dBV equivalent input noise, a 5.5-inch high-definition touchscreen, and a quad-core audio engine handling APHEX vocal processing, compression, de-essing, noise gating, and high-pass filtering in real time. The RØDECaster Pro II carries nine individually assignable channels with six physical broadcast-grade faders and three virtual faders, plus eight assignable trigger pads with bank switching for stingers, sound effects, and jingles. Reach Mascom International at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD to handle the unit before purchase. The RØDECaster Pro II accepts Neutrik combo jacks for XLR microphones, instruments, and line-level sources across all four inputs.
Built for Kenyan podcasters recording weekly shows from Westlands and Kilimani home studios, gospel musicians tracking demos in Buruburu and South B, and university media students at USIU, Daystar, and Multimedia University producing radio-style content. The RØDECaster Pro II solves the problem facing Nairobi creators juggling separate mixers, audio interfaces, and recorders for a single episode. Church AV teams at PCEA, AIC, Citam, and Mavuno run the RØDECaster Pro II for service livestreams, sermon recording, and Sunday school audio. Content creators producing YouTube interviews, Spotify podcasts, and Twitch streams use the RØDECaster Pro II to record guests over Bluetooth phone calls while keeping local microphones clean and isolated on separate tracks.
Unlike other professional audio retailers in Kenya quoting RØDECaster Pro II prices above KSh 110,000 with weeks-long import waits, Mascom International stocks the RØDECaster Pro II at KSh 90,000 with countrywide pay-on-arrival delivery. Kenya's content creators report the multitrack USB output and onboard MicroSD recording let them deliver clean stems to editors at Spice FM, Capital FM, NTV, and KTN without the latency issues common on cheaper interfaces. At Mascom International, we're seeing podcast production move from rented studios in Industrial Area to dedicated home setups built around the RØDECaster Pro II. Walk into Mascom International to test the touchscreen, faders, and preamps before placing your order, or arrange delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
Common Questions About the RØDECaster Pro II
What makes the RØDECaster Pro II different from the original RØDECaster Pro?
The RØDECaster Pro II runs a quad-core audio engine compared to the original's older processor, drops the channel count to four physical inputs while adding instrument and line-level support through the same Neutrik combo jacks. Channel assignment is fully flexible across nine channels rather than fixed to specific inputs, and the touchscreen jumps from 4.3 inches to 5.5 inches with sharper resolution. APHEX vocal processing, dual USB-C interfaces, and stereo Bluetooth replace the original's mono Bluetooth and single USB output.
How long does the RØDECaster Pro II record without a computer?
The RØDECaster Pro II records directly to a MicroSD card slotted into the rear of the unit, with capacity governed by card size rather than a fixed time limit. A 128GB MicroSD card holds roughly 24 hours of multitrack WAV recording at 24-bit/48kHz across all active channels. Kenyan podcasters running 90-minute interview shows typically choose 256GB SanDisk Extreme cards available at Mascom International for full-season recording without offload between episodes.
Is the RØDECaster Pro II worth the KSh 90,000 in Kenya's market?
The RØDECaster Pro II replaces a XLR mixer, USB audio interface, podcast recorder, sound pad controller, and headphone amplifier in one unit, which separately would cost KSh 130,000 to KSh 180,000 from professional audio retailers across Nairobi. Kenya's podcasters at Sandstorm Africa, Mics & Mimosas, and The Wicked Edition have moved to the RØDECaster Pro II for this exact reason. Mascom International stocks the unit at KSh 90,000, well below the typical Kenyan import quote.
Who should buy the RØDECaster Pro II?
The RØDECaster Pro II suits podcasters running multi-guest shows requiring isolated microphone tracks, musicians recording vocal and instrument takes directly to MicroSD, and Twitch streamers managing game audio, microphone, music, and chat alerts on separate faders. Church media directors handling live mixing during services, radio producers building remote rigs for outside broadcasts, and university journalism programs training students on broadcast workflows form the core audience. Solo content creators who plan to grow their show beyond one microphone benefit from the four-input capacity.
What microphones work with the RØDECaster Pro II in Kenya?
The four Neutrik combo inputs accept any XLR microphone including the Shure SM7B, RØDE PodMic, RØDE NT1, Audio-Technica AT2020, Behringer XM8500, and Samson Q2U commonly stocked across Kenyan audio shops. The Revolution Preamps deliver 76dB of gain, eliminating the need for a Cloudlifter or FetHead booster on the Shure SM7B. 48V phantom power can be activated per channel for condenser microphones such as the RØDE NT1, AKG C214, and Lewitt LCT 440 PURE used in Kenyan recording studios.
Does the RØDECaster Pro II handle phone interviews from Safaricom or Airtel networks?
The RØDECaster Pro II pairs with any smartphone over Bluetooth and routes the call audio to a dedicated channel with automatic mix-minus, meaning your guest hears the conversation without their own voice echoing back. Kenyan podcasters interviewing guests across Mombasa, Kisumu, and Eldoret over WhatsApp calls, Zoom audio, or standard Safaricom voice calls run this setup daily. The Bluetooth supports wide-band speech for clearer phone audio quality during remote interviews.
How does the RØDECaster Pro II connect to a computer for streaming or recording?
The RØDECaster Pro II carries two USB-C ports providing simultaneous connection to two devices. USB Interface 1 functions as a 2-in/16-out multichannel device for streaming software like OBS, Streamlabs, and XSplit, plus a 2-in/2-out interface with built-in mix-minus for video conferencing apps. USB Interface 2 connects a phone or second computer for backup recording, secondary chat audio, or guest call routing alongside the primary computer connection.
What is included in the RØDECaster Pro II retail box from Mascom International?
The RØDECaster Pro II ships with the console unit, a region-appropriate 30W USB-C power adapter, an SC27 USB-C to USB-C cable for computer connection, quick-start documentation, and warranty paperwork. Microphones, MicroSD cards, headphones, and XLR cables are not included and require separate purchase. Mascom International stocks RØDE PodMic microphones, SanDisk Extreme MicroSD cards, RØDE NTH-100 headphones, and balanced XLR cables in various lengths to complete your recording setup.
