Rode’s New Video Line-Up: Rodecaster Video vs Rodecaster Video S vs Rodecaster Core (Full Guide)

Rode has just taken a huge step into video production – and in this video we break down the three new latest game-changing panels: the RodeCaster Video, RodeCaster Video S, and RodeCaster Video Core. At the top of the range, the RodeCaster Video is a true all-in-one production hub. It combines video switching, audio mixing, recording and streaming in one compact unit. You can plug in cameras, microphones, monitors and storage, add graphics like lower thirds, and even use auto-switching to cut between angles based on who’s speaking – ideal for podcasts and small productions without a vision mixer. The RodeCaster Video S offers a more stripped-back version, keeping the core functionality but in a simpler, more affordable package for creators who don’t need the full feature set. Then there’s the RodeCaster Video Core, designed to work alongside the RodeCaster Pro II or Duo. It adds full video capability to existing audio setups – a smart alternative to pairing a RodeCaster with something like a Blackmagic ATEM. All three support direct streaming to YouTube and Twitch, USB recording to SSD, and ISO recording for flexible editing. This is a major shift towards fully integrated, creator-friendly production. 👉 Which one would you choose? Let us know in the comments! #Rode #Rodecaster #Podcasting #VideoProduction #Livestreaming
