The RODECaster Pro II is available at Mascom International for KSh 92,000, brand new and sealed, with four Revolution Preamp combo inputs, a 5.5-inch HD touchscreen, dual USB-C, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. This integrated audio production console from Rode, the Australian microphone maker, mixes up to four microphones, phone callers, a computer and music on one desk. It then records each source on its own track. You can test the RODECaster Pro II at our store in Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, before paying a single shilling.
Built for podcasters, radio presenters, content creators, church media teams and journalists across Kenya, the RODECaster Pro II replaces a tangle of mixers, interfaces and recorders. Most small studios in Kilimani and Westlands start with a laptop, one USB microphone and hours of cleanup in editing. The RODECaster Pro II gives each guest a dedicated fader and headphone output, polishes voices with APHEX processing as you record, and saves the session straight to a microSD card. When a KPLC power cut kills the laptop mid-episode, the recording on the card carries on as long as the console sits on a UPS.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops hand over audio gear in a box with nobody to show you how it works, Mascom International lets you plug in, set levels and record a test before you buy. At Mascom International, we're seeing more churches, media houses and YouTube channels move to the RODECaster Pro II because it cuts editing time. Customers across Nairobi tell us the one-touch multitrack recording changed how fast they publish. Visit the store with your own microphone, or order on WhatsApp for pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties.
Common Questions About the RODECaster Pro II
How much is the RODECaster Pro II in Kenya?
The RODECaster Pro II costs KSh 92,000 brand new and sealed at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the console, its USB-C power adapter, an SC27 USB-C cable and a 12-month warranty handled at our Kimathi Street service desk. Microphones and headphones are not included, so budget for them separately. A Rode PodMic from the same shelf adds KSh 19,500 per guest. Delivery is pay-on-arrival across all 47 counties, so you inspect the sealed box before paying by M-Pesa or cash.
Should I buy the RODECaster Pro II or the RODECaster Duo?
The RODECaster Pro II has four combo inputs, while the RODECaster Duo has two. The Pro II also carries more physical faders and a larger body, so a host plus three guests each get their own channel. The Duo costs less and fits a cramped desk better. Pick the RODECaster Pro II if your show regularly has three or more people in the room. Choose the Duo if you record solo or with one co-host, mostly from a bedroom or small office.
How does the RODECaster Pro II cope with KPLC power cuts in Kenya?
The RODECaster Pro II runs on 30W USB-C Power Delivery, a small load that a basic office UPS carries comfortably through a KPLC outage. Because it records directly to a microSD card or USB drive, a laptop that dies mid-show does not end your recording. Studios in Nairobi, Mombasa and Kisumu often pair it with a compact UPS for this reason. Save your work regularly to a second card, and keep the console covered when not in use to keep dust out of the faders.
Can I bring phone callers into a live show on the RODECaster Pro II?
Yes, the RODECaster Pro II pairs with a smartphone over Bluetooth using the headset profile with wideband speech, so callers join on their own channel. A listener ringing in on Safaricom or Airtel Kenya can talk live while you control their level with a fader. For video guests on Zoom or Google Meet, the second USB stereo interface offers mix-minus. That means remote guests hear everyone except themselves, which stops the echo that ruins many Kenyan podcast interviews.
How many microphones can the RODECaster Pro II handle at once?
The RODECaster Pro II takes four microphones through its four Neutrik combo inputs, each powered by a Revolution Preamp. Each input also accepts a line-level source or a guitar. There are nine assignable channels in total: six physical faders and three virtual faders on the touchscreen. Four headphone outputs at 250mW give each person their own mix, loud enough for dynamic microphones in a noisy room. Extra sources, such as a phone, computer or music, use the virtual channels.
Do I need a computer to record with the RODECaster Pro II?
No, the RODECaster Pro II records on its own to a microSD card or a USB storage device, so a laptop is optional. You can capture a stereo mix ready to publish or a multitrack file with every source separated. When you do connect a computer, it works with macOS 10.15 or later, Windows 10 version 1803 or later, and Windows 11. Many church media teams record the sermon to a card and edit later on any office laptop.
Can the RODECaster Pro II stream live to YouTube and Facebook?
Yes, the RODECaster Pro II sends audio to streaming software on a computer through its main USB-C interface, which carries 2 inputs and 16 outputs. Its dual USB-C ports let you connect two computers at once, for example one streaming on YouTube Live while a second runs a Zoom guest. Content creators in Nairobi use this to stream a show and record a clean multitrack copy for editing in the same session, without a second mixer.
Who should buy the RODECaster Pro II, and who should skip it?
The RODECaster Pro II suits podcasters with regular guests, radio and online stations, churches recording services, and media trainers at universities such as Strathmore and USIU. It is overkill for a solo streamer or gamer who only needs one voice on a computer. That buyer is better served by a single USB microphone such as the Rode PodMic USB at KSh 31,500. Skip it too if you only record meetings, where a laptop microphone or headset is enough.
Technical Specifications
Audio Hardware and Preamps
- Four Neutrik combo inputs — each takes an XLR microphone, a line source or a guitar, so one desk covers four guests.
- Revolution Preamps with 0 to 76dB of gain — enough clean lift to run quiet dynamic microphones without an extra booster box.
- Equivalent input noise of -131.5dBV A-weighted — a measure of preamp hiss; a figure this low keeps the silence between sentences clean.
- 113dB input dynamic range — the span between the softest and loudest sound captured, so whispers and laughter both record without distortion.
- 24-bit or 32-bit floating point at 48, 96 or 192kHz — 32-bit float leaves editors far more room to rescue loud peaks later.
Processing and Controls
- 5.5-inch HD touchscreen with haptic feedback — levels, menus and effects sit under your finger, with a small buzz confirming each tap.
- Six physical faders plus three virtual faders — nine channels in total, each assignable to a microphone, phone, computer or music source.
- Eight programmable pads with bank switching — fire jingles, sound effects, voice effects or MIDI commands live, backed by 4GB of internal storage.
- APHEX processing with VoxLab control — studio voice treatment applied as you record, so episodes need less work afterwards; it runs at 48kHz.
- Quad-core audio engine — the processor handles every effect in real time, so voices sound finished the moment you press record.
Connectivity and Outputs
- Dual USB-C — connect two computers at once, one for recording and one for streaming or a remote call.
- Main USB interface with 2 inputs and 16 outputs — each source reaches your editing software as its own separate track.
- Bluetooth with music and headset profiles — play songs from a phone or put a mobile caller on air in wideband voice quality.
- Wi-Fi and Ethernet built in — the console joins your network directly for firmware updates and network features without a computer.
- Two balanced quarter-inch line outputs plus four headphone outputs at 250mW — feed studio speakers and give every guest clear monitoring.
Recording and Storage
- Records stereo or multitrack to a microSD card, a USB drive or a computer — the laptop becomes optional for the recording itself.
- Multitrack mode — saves each microphone, the caller, music and pads separately, so an editor can fix one guest without touching the rest.
- Mix-minus on the second USB stereo interface — remote guests on video calls hear everyone except themselves, which removes echo.
- Supports macOS 10.15 or later, Windows 10 version 1803 or later, and Windows 11 — covers most office and student laptops.
- Instrument input impedance of 1 megohm — plug a guitar or bass straight in, with no separate DI box needed.
Build and Power
- 30W USB-C Power Delivery at 15V and 2A — runs from the included adapter, and the low draw sits easily on a small UPS.
- 305mm by 270mm by 60mm — roughly a laptop's footprint, leaving space on a narrow desk for microphones and a screen.
- 1,960g weight — heavy enough to stay put while faders move, light enough to carry to an outside broadcast.
- Mic input impedance of 4 kilohms with a 20Hz to 20kHz frequency range — the full range of human hearing passes through.
- Line outputs reach +4dBu — the professional level that studio monitors and venue sound desks expect from a console.
