The Rode to easier video podcasts

Posted on Jan 12, 2026 by Pro Moviemaker

Rode’s new Rodecaster Video S is a compact, all-in-one production console that puts professional video and audio power into a creator-friendly form factor and price

For £499/$499, the Rodecaster Video S features three HDMI inputs, dual wireless mic receivers, two combo jacks with ultra-low-noise Revolution Preamps and high-end audio processing. It’s a cheaper and more basic version of the award-winning Rodecaster Video.

The Video S handles recording, live switching and streaming to major platforms via Wi-Fi or Ethernet, with ISO recording to USB drives. Intelligent auto-switching, a two-inch touchscreen and hands-on controls make production easy. 

You can input up to four NDI streams for streaming output and it can be added to a Rode audio podcasting system via USB-C ports or via the Rode Central software app.
