Thank you for the review, I saw this quickly listed online a couple months ago and thought it was cool, but I didn't read it too deeply. You just highlighted that this is even cooler than I thought, as someone who spends a lot of time professionally in 'zoom' and giving PPTs, this is exactly what I need over my current 'traditional' capture card.

@talusamaranth 10 ай бұрын

I really like the idea of this device. Especially considering the GoXLR support rapidly running out of time, I think this could be my next upgrade (sidegrade? Probably sidegrade). How do you think this compared side by side with the Elgato XLR stuff?

Looks like a contender as a GoXLR replacement for me. With GoXLR future support in question and the fact that just bumping the thing disconnects the device from my PC, often requiring a reboot, I am keeping an eye out while not exactly in the market right now. This seems to meet most of my requirements, but not sure on some things still. Does it support press as well as hold on the mute buttons to allow for muting to a specific vs all outputs? Can I program the nobs to adjust other audio device volumes by switching pages or smart pad? Redoing my audio seems a daunting task, but sounds like it is only a matter of time until it may be necessary.

I think it seems great for travel, all in one just pack up your camera, laptop, maybe console? mic, and start streaming or recording with high quality. Honestly, if you travel a lot and plan to stream during your travels, it's the best starting setup as well, and if you *wanted* you can your home setup for more complicated stuff. Good stuff Rode!

I have the steamer x and have been really enjoying it. I haven't made as much use of the smart pads as I'd like, was hoping for something more along the lines of a stream deck or loupedeck live, but they're still useful. I need to look into midi more. Also, I've had random audio loss at points, but nothing a restart of unify can't fix. One other thing is the HDMI had recently stopped working, but rode had good support, so hoping to get it fixed

Really interesting! I'm a music streamer and I run all my audio through my MacBook Pro and my video and stream output through my PC. I don't think this would help with that set up specifically but as you said, if I'm traveling, that might be a great piece of gear to bring to include everything I need! Thanks Harris!

@Legal-Canadian 10 ай бұрын

As someone who streams for a very specific reason and niche, this actually sounds like an awesome all in one device. If I already didn't have my elgato capture cards and interface this could be a very good viable option (and much cheaper too) than going an buying separate gear that do one thing. Especially considering it can take up to 4K input.

I was hoping for a review on this, I've been wanting a super simple but versatile setup.

Absolutely love mine - makes it way easy to stream from my Mac now and get a professional XLR input at the same time. I've tried other solutions from Elgato and it was not as smooth. Only thing I wish RODE added was a Power Button on the Streamer X. It's a bit of a pain to have to unplug from power or USB when I don't want to use it.

@sawyercustom 10 ай бұрын

I can how that would be very handy. I've been looking at stream decks and the CC on that one might be the selling point. Can you piggyback a stream deck off that one for more buttons?

I love everything Rode has been doing lately. I'm a Rode Caster Pro II user. I would have loved to have gotten the Dou but they didn't announce it till some 3 or 4 months after I bought the Pro II. Would be nice to have the smaller foot print with all the same control. The StreamerX is perfect for the user that is looking for simple controls for some audio along with a decent capture card.

Nice video -- I use OBS and an SLR primarily for video calls. I use an audio cable for sound and user-defined shader filter to adjust lighting (which is kind of pain). Will this rode device make both sound and video process (lighting adjustments) better/on the fly?

Would this be a good device to use in combination with a stream deck? I've been looking into the stream deck for a long time now. This seems to be simultaneously similar and completely different. I feel like if you had a stream deck most (except the capture card/mic interface) of the functionality would be replaced by it.

Couple things... I love the content of your channels, and how you do things is wonderful. You've been an influence on me and my streaming so I'm naming you in my new channel video as an unvolunteered victim of mine that's been a huge influence. these stream decks.. do they make life that much easier and wouldn't I want a bunch of buttons to control things? or can these be stacked? lastly I downloaded the sizzle thing, I hope their game list gets extended to final fantasy14 one of these days. their offer is very enticing.

This is super appealing to me since my goxlr has had constant issues and has been driving me crazy and my elgato capture card died this is just what I need. However I have a big question that I've only seen 1 answer for, on reddit, 2 months ago. There's no stream deck compatibility for audio levels? Will they be making a streamdeck plugin or anything that will work with UNIFY so we don't have to tab out and manually click and change all the audio in the Rode software? It looks like that isn't a thing yet. Seems like a massive oversight to me.

Tbh this sounds like a product for me. I dont have a complicated setup, and buying high end audio and video capture stuff is beyond my budget. This having everything in one for a reasonable price, and apparently good quality too, speaks to me! I can also see this being used for portable streaming setups where carrying big boy gear would be cumbersome. Does it support Modmic? I don't want to buy an XLR microphone just to use this or another mixer.

I had an issue where I couldn't adjust the HDMI audio as it was greyed out. Uninstalling the software did not fix the issue. In the end, when it worked it was really dope but to many issues to make it worth it.

So I have rodecaster pro 2 for my my main dual pc streaming setup. But have a separat "art station" where I have my laptop with a drawing tablet, and wanted to start making art content on twitch/youtube. This feels like just the thing for a scaled down streaming setup like that. Though I'm a bit on the fence for more rode hardware after the roadcaster pro 2, they have talked a lot about coming features and updates that just never seem to arrive. And frankly rode kind of suck at talking to and informing their community/followers on what is going on and what they are doing.
