Four customizable buttons on the front of the console can be set up to trigger specific sounds and actions on a computer. Two USB-C connections allow users to connect the Streamer X to two separate PCs at the same time. The device is fully compatible with Rode’s suite of software tools, including Unify, Rode Central and Rode Connect.
In addition to the Streamer X, Rode also announced the Rodecaster Duo, a new audio interface that brings together all the features found in the company’s Rodecaster Pro II but puts them into a more compact package. The Rodecaster Duo should be able to drive even the most power-hungry mics without the need for an in-line signal booster, and offers Bluetooth connectivity for audio monitoring.
