Features And Specifications Of RØDE Connect

[@Podcastage]

Ryan is back! YAY! Oh, also an amazing new feature!

[@rodemic]

Ryan told me to tell you he said hi 👋

[@אלוןאנגל-ה9ש]

Hey Andrew what's up I'm loving your content and loving your channel and I just love your voice first things out of the way and second I need you to do a favor for me if you make a video and highlighting all the problems on the software side of the road connect I think we'll make it an address it faster I really like road and really like their microphones specially for doing some work on a budget but I need to do a software to you fixable or at least usable right now it's really buggy for example if I use my microphone all the time plugged into my computer it doesn't register if the software is not running in the background and this is really limiting me using other interfaces like other USB microphones and other audio car sound cards. If you could make it an address at in one of your next videos I'm sure it will fix it and make them really take it seriously cuz you have a really strong voice on KZbin thank you one of your fans. I hope the English was understandable English is not my first language thank you

[@AdamBA380]

This is great! Would love to see the Connect software work with all of your USB-connected devices, especially the VideomicNTG and Wireless Go II as they are useful for those of us who don't like to have a mic in frame.

[@curtisjudd]

Nice addition for existing and future NT-USB Mini owners...and the price is hard to beat!

[@rodemic]

Yes indeed!

[@swschilke]

Røde should open this application to other Røde USB Microphones, like the Røde NT-USB or Røde Podcaster.

[@lopstream]

Agree

[@NeelsWorld]

Just bought a Rode NT USB mini a couple of months ago. This is my biggest investment for audio. Upgraded from Boya Lav mic. Happy to hear about the software.

[@CheqkoO95]

Honestly as the updates come out I understand why creators love Rode so much!!! 🙏🏼

[@pixifystudio]

Sweet! This piece of software managed to get my NT USB-Mini to make friends with Microsoft Teams! Using the Stream Input (Röde Connect) as Microphone input Microsoft Teams (and Röde System Output) as speaker, now I get to control the microphone volume through Connect (instead of Teams auto-adjustments), and I can even mix in some sound effects / music when the meetings become too boring :) Many thanks from Sweden!

[@rogeriogomesosorio4755]

Amazing. You guys keep showing why you are one of the best companies out there.

[@keplers_dog]

That’s exactly what the market needs. Great, you guys are on a roll!!

[@jayzah]

Such a great mic that's definately worth the price I paid. Definitely has the potential to be the absolute go to for streamers if the software had more virtual channels and a way to adujust the channels audio levels for both the stream and and myself similar to what elgato does with wave link, almost perfect guys!

[@tombuck]

I call the blue one!

[@ianmorton5539]

...RØDEtastic...!!!

[@RexxReviews]

Any plans on a future updated the software to make it be able to run at window start up. It seems like an oversight not to already have that in the software so that you have all your settings ready to go when you start your computer. There are times I have already seen my computer get confused between all the different inputs because it start up as a standard USB microphone but then once connect is on it sees the virtuals. If connect closes after the usb portion Doesn’t work half the time like it should. Being able to have this work like voice meter where it sits in the system tray would make the functionality of this work that much better.

[@IJusaI]

I second this. I am also having issues where I am simply unable to launch Connect after the first reboot after installing it. This and the fact the microphone is extremely quiet without the Connect software (even at 100% on windows settings) make it un-usable for me atm.

[@neilmossey]

This looks awesome thanks, but man I wish I could plug in my Rode Podcaster USB mic to this app!

[@syncurmind]

When can we use VideMic NTG with road connect?

[@SidneyDiongzon]

THIS IS SO AMAZING!!

[@ericbaluya361]

I am interested to know how this will affect video call such as Zoom, Teams, Skype, WebEx and others. I am using the NT Mini USB for business purposes not for streaming, will the DSP improve my conference calls?

[@gregorsnell]

Great update 🙏

[@IceTeaMan022]

It would be great if the rode caster pro could integrate with the software to add additional virtual input options.

[@MisterGiant]

LOL using 4 usb-c ports on a a macbook pro, would be cool to have a HUB-C hub maybe even with only sliders (or buttons up and down) for levels and mute buttons that are sync with the software.

[@willomanza]

Can I export and delete multiple recording clips at one time from the interface?

[@adam1st-]

Amazing

[@madness8556]

Does Podmic USB work with Rode Connect. Can Rode Connect be routed directly into a DAW like Logic, Protools, Cubase, Reaper, Audacity etc? Can I record directly into Rode Connect and save /edit my audio files within the app itself?

[@rodemic]

The PodMic USB does work with RØDE Connect and you can record and modify recordings in the app itself. It does however operate separately to other DAWs such as those you mention. If you would like multitrack recording into a DAW for your recording or podcast, we'd recommend looking at the RØDECaster range.

[@GamersPlayerUnion]

Its about time. Please let this software work on the Rodecaster Pro for audio routing for live streaming

[@rickautry4822]

This is a game changer

[@GeertDelmulle]

You guys are KILLING it! Your business model, vision and strategy are awesome!

[@TUNGPHAM-rk9ob]

plssss, make it compatible with the NTG Videomic!!!

[@davidbrackett6282]

The David Brackett Show Comedy podcast WILL be using this mic as soon as it can get here. Rode is unbelievable

[@b3naqua]

I'm loving the RODE Connect built in effects. They make it so easy to record magical sounding voiceovers and podcasts with minimal post production. Well done RODE!

[@kenwillim]

This is so awesome! Looks like it'll work so much better than Voicemeeter, although I wish it has compatibility with the Videomic NTG which I use for my videos.

[@BrendanEvan]

Yes please 🙌

[@1357973328]

This video of rode connect, thus it follow then that even though I do not have yet bought the rode caster pro ( hardware ) I can operate very easily all my streaming in my CPU with the use of rode connect ( software ), and also sing songs accompanied by a karaoke music in the same computer would not disturb anybody's line, who is in my LIVE STREAM invited as guest? Of course I need to buy ntc USB mini microphone either one or four mics for a simultaneous four person's as my guests being hosted in my LIVE STREAMING?

[@adebayomaria6160]

Thanks for a detailed video....can the software be installed on and ipad pro?

[@rodemic]

Unfortunately not, just PC or MacOS systems.

[@Digitalmixes]

Is no-one else distracted by the low end thumps and clicks in this recording...oh it's the music! Anyhow does look good.

[@RandomLifeProductions]

This software does not work in Streamyard or Melon or You Tube its a great bit of software but it messes up when streaming in Melon and Streamyards. I had to completely remove the software. It messed with my M50 camera. Please could up provide an update or at least explain why it does not work on Chrome based life stream apps.

[@christianbalbuenag]

I’m wondering if you have software for the Rodecaster pro?!?!?

[@neerajaroravlogs]

Purchased two nt usb mini yesterday. There are some serious issues with this software. please help where i can connect

[@rodemic]

Please get in touch with our support team at rode.com/contact, we'll give you a hand!

[@Zombiehobbit]

wow - this is just brilliant, thank you so much. One feature request (ye gods, is really cool free software not enough?!? Are you considering, or can you recommend, some soundboard buttons to add effects whilst recording?

[@KozKreoleKwenKomedi]

so this will NOT work with any other microphone but ONLY with the Rode NT-USB mini NOT even the bigger RODE NT-USB

[@rodemic]

Yes that's correct. The NT-USB Mini has some fairly advanced features under the hood to make this work.

[@KozKreoleKwenKomedi]

@@rodemic thanks

[@DMProductions]

Wow Awesome Update ! Love my nt-usb and now even better

[@TheLaPyae]

I did tried couple of time to download . but the download link seem not work on website. can't wait to test it out.

[@matthew.datcher]

1:28 I think the bigger problem is actually connecting four USB devices to a computer. It seems that only the most expensive laptops have more than two USB ports, often with one of those doubling as the charging port. It seems like instead of simple USB cables, which can be obtained anywhere, Rode needs to add a USB hub which could add to the hardware ecosystem.

[@rodemic]

You can use a powered USB hub to connect more NT-USB Minis to your computer!

[@TorqHub]

THIS is why Røde is a market leader. Australian made, Australian paid 💪🏻🇦🇺

[@ChuckTomasi]

What mic are you using to record the audio on this video? It sounds great

[@pergunnareriksson]

As he's using a lav my guess is that it is either the Røde Lavalier GO or the smartLav+.

[@MichaelTucker]

Gee after 10 years of doing this stuff with every other method! This has just got a lot easier to produce a livestream.....

Amazing. What to do with all the equipment I have (rodcaster, procaster, podmic and ONE UsbMini)? My question is simple: can I use a USB hub for connecting the 4 usb in? Thks and keep up. From Lisboa, Portugal (where I cannot find a Rode office)

[@rodemic]

Yes you can, but we recommend you use a powered USB hub!

[@kwameryan]

Amazing! I understand that you guys don't want to cannibalize the Rodecaster by making this available for any mics but surely your loyal Videomic NTG customers should be allowed access? PLEASE make this happen Rode! I defected from Deity and have never looked back because of the hardware but also cause of the support! 😊

[@jhowie]

a year later and Videomic NTG is now compatible with Rode Connect.

[@Ryzza5]

So if you don't have this NT Mini microphone, stick with Voicemeeter Pro/Banana - also free.

[@Nerdhaunt]

And some people wonder why creators love Rode!

[@cinemelompfc9824]

Any possibility of getting a Bluetooth connection onto the software ?

[@MarkusWutte]

Great Software, but it‘s really missing the ability to cut recorded audio! Please add this featue in an update, thank you!

[@Leonidas909]

The most important feature, which is signal processing is completely overlooked and just a "one button" solution for each effects. That's pretty terrible and altho it's better than nothing especially for newbies, saying this will give people the same sound as the top best podcast broadcast sound and that it's the same as whats found in the biggest studios is such an incredible marketing lie...

[@josjourney5512]

Is this also coming as an App for the IPad? This would be amazing!

[@LyGamezz]

I hope this software will unlock for the older NT-USB. Really like that mic and don’t wanna put it in a box just to buy another one 🥴

[@JoelPurnell]

Hi. Great software, very useful. On a Mac, if I choose to monitor using the Macs internal speakers, is there anyway to adjust the volume. As I am also using a system channel and so the Macs audio is set to point at Rode System Mic, meaning that the normal volume control is unavailable and greyed out. Hope that makes sense! Thanks.

[@rodemic]

Hey Joel! No, monitor volume alone is set from computer/RØDE Connect side of things

[@GaryDmedia]

Such a great addition to your range of USB microphones. Can the software be used for the Rode NT-USB as well?

[@rodemic]

It's currently only compatible with the NT-USB Mini, but we are looking at ways to enhance and add capabilities to RØDE Connect in the future!

[@alanfindlayviewfromtherock6200]

Here's a question. Is it only your own voice that is heard in the headphone outlet per mic? In other words, if there are more than 1 microphones connected, will I hear what my guest is saying when they speak into their mics via my headphones?

[@אלוןאנגל-ה9ש]

Hey road I love your products and you suddenly outdone yourself but there's a lot of bugs you have to fix for example when I try to use my microphone without the application running in the background it doesn't register at all and I have to run the application in the background for it to work this is a problem I have multiple USB microphones and I have multiple audio interface and it messes with my workflow if you won't fix it very soon the firmware so I could like do voice search on KZbin on the first search on Google and use DaVinci resolve and audio recording without running the application in the background this is a very important and also I can you have the program on my PC and not have it bug all the other audio microphones that I have. Please road fix this problem as fast as you can I do like your microphone but I'm cannot make content and recommend it fully without you fixing this problem

[@rodemic]

Thanks for the feedback! I'll pass it onto our development team.

[@RandomLifeProductions]

Rode, help, I downloaded your software... I then tried melons and streamyard and it messed up my M50, streamyard connections.... No sound and cannot go live... Can I please have a tutorial for this. I can only even connect one mic

[@rodemic]

Hey! If you get in touch with our support team at rode.com/contact, they should be able to give you a hand!

[@RandomLifeProductions]

Does this work on Streamyard or Melon

[@endcap]

The changes I make are not working on Discord. Is there something I'm missing?

[@darrencarrington8134]

Will RODE Connect work with the Rode NT USB as well or just the Mini Ryan?

[@rodemic]

Currently only compatible with the NT-USB Mini!

[@Diamond21222]

I was hoping to find a video on editing with the Rode connect software

[@rodemic]

The Connect software is more designed purely for recording rather than editing. But what else would you like to see? :)

[@Diamond21222]

@@rodemic Ok thanks.

[@CodeDeb]

I’m definitely going to look into this. Simple is what I’m looking for!

[@BorisUrumov]

"Compatible ONLY with the NT-USB Mini"

[@HansHenrikTOhlsen]

So you no longer want people to get a Podcaster Pro? Seems to me that you are undermining your own product line?

[@hellolau]

The noise gate doesn’t work well and mess up your recording!

[@NsanePixel]

This should be an app for cell phones to make it even more portable.

[@DocRock]

I get white noise when I put the mic level under 20. Otherwise it's delicious so far

[@nabins52]

What platform are you on and what output are you using?

[@DocRock]

@@nabins52 Big Sur and monitoring from the mic port itself. It actually makes a funny audible tick once it passed 20

[@rodemic]

Thanks for the feedback, we're looking into this!

[@swschilke]

What does SC stands for? Super Cable ;-)

[@kevintoocommon]

Even with the firmware update to the NT-USB Mini, it still doesn't fix the robotic sound it produces sometimes.

[@iamrufusjohnson]

Can you run all four mics to a single USB hub connected to 1 USB-C port? I have a Macbook Air and it only has 2 USB-C ports. I saw another video that said if anything after 2 mics won't be recognized on a single port.

[@rodemic]

This is something our Service Team will be able to help you with! You can reach them at rode.com/contact 😊

[@zatoichiable]

can it be controlled via midi?

[@taimurutube-rcmaniac-basherrc]

Is it possible to adjust base levels through the new software while using the mic?

[@koenignero]

Hi, why have you chosen not to add Sub-Mix with a second fader per source like the competition?

[@NeilFarrimond]

Is it possible to use this with the Røde NT-USB ? Even if just for one Mic?

[@rodemic]

Currently only compatible with the NT-USB Mini, sorry. You can use up to four mics at once!

[@MichaelSpanoMonroetwp]

What about us people who don't have 4 usb ports on our laptop? Can we run all four mics via a powered hub?

[@nabins52]

Yes, you can

[@jaludwick]

So now I don’t need the podcaster pro I just bought?

[@PodcastMeister]

You guys have just crashed into being the hands-down most cost effective quality solution for multitrack(!) -recording a podcast with 1-4 people present + 0-1 remote guest. Congratulations! (before Rode Connect you had to use software like Pamela Professional or Call Recorder or Audio Hijack). The ease of use, effects, looks and the distribution optimizer a‘la Rodecaster as the cherry on top makes this solution quite unbeatable.

[@Vikultsev]

This is amazing. Please create something similar for iPad pro!

[@SherlockTelgt]

Indeed.

[@desburkekennedy]

Are the RODE NT USB plus RODE Connect suitable for recording an Audio Book

[@rodemic]

Only the NT-USB Mini is compatible with RØDE Connect, but it could definitely be used to record an audio book.

[@desburkekennedy]

@@rodemic Many thanks - sounds like what I needed :)

[@lee-threeimagery7150]

Can I use the rode lavalier ii with rode Connect?

[@rodemic]

You will need an adaptor such as the AI-Micro because the Lavalier II is TRS type connection. If you are looking for a Lavalier that works with your computer (plug and play) we'd recommend the SmartLav+

[@lee-threeimagery7150]

@@rodemic I’m sorry I was meaning to ask if I could use the Rode Wireless Go ii with Rode Connect.

This software is an absolute lifesaver for recording my classes and own mic input... It completely simplifies all my audio routing from Blackhole and a plus it enables noise gate... Thank you for making my initial investment worth while even more!

[@SanoyNimbus]

A really nice application. But for people like me that uses VideoMic NTG (via USB) and or Wireless GO II (via USB) ... is it possible for us to use this application?

[@rodemic]

RØDE Connect is currently only compatible with the NT-USB Mini, but we are looking at adding more functionality to the software, including compatibility with other mics.

[@BhaskarNatarajan8055]

This is good. I tried connecting my Rode NT Mini to Google meet yesterday. Has a hard time understanding which one to select on the application settings- Virtual, System or NT Mini? The other party couldn't hear me, however I could hear them. It was strange. Could you please help with right settings? I'm sure I'm missing something basic... what is it!?

[@rodemic]

The Learning Hub should help you get everything set up correctly! Check it out here - rode.com/software/rode-connect/learning-hub

[@joelhillary9095]

If you have the Nt USB (not mini) does the rode connect work fine with that?? Or is it only for the nt USB mini?

[@rodemic]

Only some RØDE products are compatible with RØDE Connect as they contain internal DSP that allow critical aspects of the software to run. The NT-USB is not compatible as it lacks the DSP required, whereas the NT-USB Mini does.

[@AnatolMenke]

Ryan here! :) love the series. You guys really are getting the needs at this current time! Awesome new feature to improve the NT USB Mini. Cheers

RØDE Connect is currently only compatible with the NT-USB Mini, but we are actively looking at ways to improve and expand the capabilities of RØDE Connect!

[@BrianSchwartz]

@@rodemic If you combined RØDE's design and UX expertise with VB- Audio's donation ware audio routing capabilities, you would really have something special. I use the VMP Pro+ plus for all my video conferences, and it would be nice to have a seamless way to add a virtual audio stream to the overall out. VB is great but certainly not elegant.

[@DavidBrackett385]

Hi Ryan hope y’all are well, I had a question about the levels I’m trying to get them dialed in I’m on the usb mini, can you help understand if there is an unity gain level on the slider? Also is there an idea on what db levels represent the meter? I’ve actually been doing voice over with the usb mini and rode connect and it’s worked out really great so far but I’m new to all this and learning thanks

[@rodemic]

Hey David, In RØDE Connect, the unity level for each slider is the more prominent grey line (7th line from the bottom of the slider. Perhaps dB markings would be most suited to the general signal output meter, each mark of the main signal mix meter represents 5dB. From the right it starts at 0dB, and with each mark lessens by 5dB. A way to verify this would be playing a tone generator, then on a DAW like audacity, have Connect Stream as the input device, and compare the dB markings of the signal meters from the DAW and Connect. Hope that helps!
