When the RØDECaster Virtual Devices Driver connects to the RØDECaster Pro II / Duo, the USB 1 Multitrack Output will be expanded to provide the individual faders as separate input options on your computer.
With these inputs available, you will be able to select any of the RØDECaster's channels from faders 1 to 9 within your recording or streaming software alongside the Main Stereo Mix, regardless of what is currently assigned to the fader. This allows all channel types to be available as individual inputs on a computer.
This is feature is especially useful when using software that allows the user to select multiple input devices at once, such as OBS.
This expanded multitrack output would be different to the standard USB1 multitrack output for use with DAWs, as described in this article: The RØDECaster Pro II / Duo Multitrack Channel Layout
To enable the Virtual Device multitrack output, please ensure that you have downloaded and installed the latest version, available here.
After installing the Virtual Device Driver, follow these steps:
- Ensure your RØDECaster is running the latest firmware by navigating to:
Settings > System > Info > Check for Update
(Internet connection via Wi-Fi or Ethernet is required.) - Connect your RØDECaster directly to your computer using the USB 1 port.
- On the RØDECaster, navigate to:
Settings > Outputs > Multitrack > USB 1 Output
Then select either Pre-Fader or Post-Fader. - Next, select the Expanded setting within USB 1 Input. Enabling this will allow the RØDECaster to communicate with the driver.
Here is an example showing how each of the available inputs appear within the Windows sound settings when the Virtual Device driver is active:
These inputs reflect the order of the RØDECaster's fader positions as they are arranged in the main mixer:
