How to Broadcast Live Radio with a Mixer (in 10 Minutes)

[@franpork]

I am purchasing this week!!!

[@mannymaldonado6174]

thanks Radio.co!

[@stephenpalmer2762]

Great vid James what the lead to connect to laptop please

[@2000radio]

Thanks thanks thanks. Its now so easy to make liveshows with virtual dj and the rødecaster pro

[@theroomfm8184]

The Rodecaster Pro seems like a great product.

[@Radiodotco]

We'd say so!

[@cactustom02]

Fine Video, thx. Does RCPro alows Faderstart?

[@thechatterpodpodcast1432]

Thank you great video was very informative. I definitely learned something today.

[@Radiodotco]

Glad it helped. And for a full breakdown of how to setup the Rodecaster Pro, check out: radio.co/blog/broadcast-live-radio-with-the-rodecaster-pro

[@avaliveradio]

Can you show us how to use our iPad as the control Consol for broadcasting live?

[@MarkDeJongh-lu2ij]

Can I use radio co livestreaming living in South africa

[@JessicaYAndrade0427]

With the rode caster pro does this allow you to go live and talk and have the station playing live in the background?

[@BartlettTFD]

Extremely informative 👍

[@DavcoMediaTV]

Great video. Really informative. I currently use SAM Broadcaster Pro which in general terms I like, but I prefer physical faders. At the moment, SAM does everything for me. Could I use SAM Broadcaster Pro as my music source and play it through the Rodecaster Pro and then stream via BUTT rather than SAM's built-in encoders?

[@Radiodotco]

Looks like SAM Broadcaster Pro doesn't allow you to map channels, but you can take in the master feed. Maybe try Mixxx instead: manual.mixxx.org/2.2/en/chapters/advanced_topics.html#advanced-controller

[@Davidinspain]

Great video thanks. I have just started with a local radio station and have my own 1 hour show live. I would love to use your setup with the roadcadter pro I just can’t afford one at the moment. Where’s the best place to buy one and can I get a second hand one anywhere. I broadcast to an English audience here in Spain .

[@hausahiphop24]

Please how do I connect "ON AIR" light in my rodcaster to automatically work whenever any mic is live

[@dalefoulser6795]

Thanks James, this was very informative on how to broadcast, but I am obviously missing something here! I have the RØDECaster, but don't understand how you can properly use this as a radio mixer with just one channel. If you are playing on deck 1 of Virtual DJ going to channel 5 on the RØDECaster, how are you using the PFL on the RODEcaster to listen to deck 2? Surely the faders on Virtual DJ would have to be used to go from deck 1 to deck 2? HELP!

[@Radiodotco]

I'm not 100% sure (could be a setting on the mixer itself). But on the RodeCaster Pro you can use a pair of headphones to listen to the master volume as we do in the video. Find a breakdown of what's mentioned here at: radio.co/blog/broadcast-live-radio-with-the-rodecaster-pro

[@forestgreen6542]

RodeCaster PRO and BUTT Encoder combo is great. Butt has been updated to Version 1.29

[@Radiodotco]

Yeah, nice little combo. Worth getting a breakdown of the setup here: radio.co/blog/broadcast-live-radio-with-the-rodecaster-pro

[@toallmybrothers]

do you have one with zoom podtrak p8?

[@Rickster208]

Good video. I did a show or two a couple of years ago for a friend. Doesn’t Virtual DJ do the same thing as BUTT?

[@Radiodotco]

More of less. BUTT is basic, but Virtual DJ has media management options: radio.co/blog/virtual-dj-8-broadcast-online-radio

[@destinokazika7313]

Please make a video how to broadcast live radio and social media at same time. Having difficult.

[@Djwestcarr-gl2tg]

What's the price for this device

[@ormilshtein9758]

Hi! Is it possible to configure 2 faders to be used as a radio DJ mixing? I mean, load song A to virtual DJ, play it on channel 1, load another song to virtual DJ, and when the first song ends, play the second song and use channel 2 in the Rodecaster device to switch between them?

[@Bishopoflyons1217]

Hey James thank you for the tutorial. How are things going? A lot of things have change during COVID. Is it possible to do internet radio broadcast during these most financial diffculties? Is there any possibility that things can somehow go back to normal? There is quick a few people I know are no longer here. Sometimes it can be a bit discouraging at times especially those who are taking advantage of what it happening. I really believe we need more content creators than flashy fly-by-night representative and sponsors who just out to get a quick buck. I believe I have a message that will resonate with people, but, I perfer a wider audience then where I am at this present time. Thanks for everything James. Keep up the good work.👍

[@marxworld3037]

Cheers James. Really appreciate the post. Just a quick one.. Instead of going live, can the set up that you just described, be used to pre-record into software like Adobe Audition? Keep up the good work 👍

[@Radiodotco]

Yes, you can use it to record or broadcast live. Just a case of setting it up correctly. But you can record via Radio.co: help.radio.co/en/articles/1062646-recording-live-dj-events

[@manumartinezkcxu]

would be nice to have it on windows OS and other

[@studiogoudvanoud2113]

Thank you for this video. Is it possible to pre-listen while broadcasting e.g. player a is playing onair and i want to pre-listen player b? Of course whit the Rodecaster.

[@Radiodotco]

Yes, you can monitor the master audio on the Rodecaster Pro. Most mixers and audio interfaces do this as standard so you can tweak audio on the fly.

[@Djwestcarr-gl2tg]

Great video

[@tonyangel58]

thanks james

[@Radiodotco]

No worries. There's actually a bunch more tips like this at: radio.co/blog

[@j.a.mcbean.4043]

Thanks ❤

[@chostv5078]

Great video..pls what camera did use to shoot this video

[@Radiodotco]

We typically use Lumix GH5s and BlackMagic Pocket Cinema 4K cameras to shoot our videos.

[@mariachi2013]

Can you still use the road caster Pro if you’re using an actual DJ controller? For example are use the pioneer DDJSB3. Would this set up still work?

[@micahjames5663]

You would have to connect the pioneer controller via the TRRS input

[@mariachi2013]

And what kind of connection is that particular connection? Like is it RCA jacks, a quarter inch input?

[@micahjames5663]

@@mariachi2013 the cable you will need is a dual RCA to 3.5mm TRS (headphone Jack) it’s a standard cable so it should be difficult to get

[@Radiodotco]

What Micah said 😀

[@hectorsoto2942]

Hello, can you please do the same instructional video using Windows and the Tascam mixcast 4 - im just starting out and could really use the help.

[@Radiodotco]

Although we don't have that particular guide, it's worth having a look at this for beginners: radio.co/blog/live-shows-using-a-mixer

[@DaveSHarris]

I broadcast in exactly this way using the Rodecaster Pro.

[@DaveSHarris]

@@Radiodotco it does the job for sure. I use Radio DJ software to create rotations for suggested songs that I might want to play so I don’t need to think what to play each time.

[@Radiodotco]

That's pretty cool. Would you mind if we shared your setup? Take a pic of and send it to [e-mail]. Or @ us on socials (Twitter/Facebook/Instagram) and we'll reshare.

[@djjamminm]

If using a audio mixer to sam cast live encoder or butt. How can you get the now playing artist/songs to show like it would with an integrated encoder, but would like to use a mixer to use multiple channels etc.

[@Radiodotco]

No simple answer to this unfortunately. So drop us a message and we'll try to help at [e-mail].

[@safani1396]

This is great

[@Her-RadioLive]

I have a Mackie DLZ Creator, they are the perfect marriage.

[@jordyboy49]

Does this have mix minus?

[@micahjames5663]

Yes

[@Radiodotco]

Yes you can easily create mix-minus with the Rodecaster Pro. Check out our guide on how; radio.co/blog/take-live-calls-with-mix-minus

[@ESmith-is9es]

Yes please do windows. Thank you!

[@Radiodotco]

This guide should work for anyone using Windows too! You're welcome 😊

[@michaelneverson]

Please make a windows version thanks

[@Radiodotco]

Everything used in this guide is usable with Windows, including BUTT and Virtual DJ, so you should be able to follow this and get great results.

[@SamandSteve]

@@Radiodotco What about when using your own windows app?

[@DesmondNoel]

Of you have any influence at rode ask them to put dedicated XLR pgm out put seperateley from monitor out broadcaster will gladly pay 100 pounds more it can be truly be broadcast Gear Desmond IL take5% on every unit sold lol

[@BigIslandBuddy]

Fyi VDJ A PRO (ya cost $ but $19 is affordable for most) has radio streaming features built in.

[@Radiodotco]

Neat! Thanks for the heads up 👍

[@ScottyMelvin]

I don't understand the need for BUTT

[@elvispressedtalot9899]

This is of no concern!! But , why the hell does his Nose interfere with his voice!.. Sounds very irritating. tryna listen to the video. :/
