RØDE RØDECaster Pro II
Give the whole table a channel.
Four-person studio. No guesswork.
Our desk-console pick when three or four XLR microphones are the normal show—not a rare exception. Four rear headphone outputs and six physical faders give a producer more direct control.
Choose it for
A regular three- or four-person panel with a permanent desk and a producer who wants hands-on fader control.
Look elsewhere if
You normally record just two XLR microphones or need a battery-powered recorder to carry between locations.

The trade-off: More console to fit on the desk and more routing to learn. For a consistent two-XLR show, compare the Duo before buying extra controls.
The board is the start.
These links are for the console or recorder—not a complete studio kit. Plan microphones, XLR cables, stands, headphones, compatible recording media, and any adapters separately.
The rear headphone connections are ¼-inch. Check your headphones and adapters, USB routing, and supported storage before the first session.
Sound pads are not microphone inputs. USB-only microphones do not connect directly to XLR sockets. Make and play back a short test recording before your show.
Keep the other options in view.
