help Rode Proc Cast FAQ
Is the RODE Proc Cast actually the RODE Procaster?
Yes, RODE's product is officially named the Procaster; "Proc Cast" appears to be a catalog naming error. It is an end-address dynamic broadcast microphone made for podcasting, radio, streaming, and voice-over.
Does the RODE Procaster connect by USB?
No, the Procaster uses a balanced three-pin XLR output and requires an audio interface, mixer, or recorder with a microphone preamp. RODE's Podcaster is the related model designed for direct USB connection.
Does the RODE Procaster need phantom power?
No, its dynamic capsule does not require 48-volt phantom power. Its sensitivity is relatively low at about 1.6 mV/Pa, so a preamp with ample clean gain is useful.
How does the RODE Procaster control plosives and room noise?
It has an internal pop filter and a cardioid pickup pattern, which help reduce plosives and reject sound from behind the microphone. Close microphone placement still works best, and an external pop filter can provide additional protection.
