The RØDECaster Duo features world-class Revolution Preamps™ that deliver pristine audio quality with any microphone, instrument, headset or line-level source. Designed from the ground up specifically for the RØDECaster series, these ultra-low-noise, high-gain preamps will give you plenty of output while remaining incredibly quiet, eliminating the need for microphone boosters, lifters or external processing. Craft your sound with studio-quality audio processing powered by one of the most revered names in pro audio: APHEX. On-board is a suite of authentic emulations of legendary hardware audio processors, including the Aural Exciter™, Big Bottom™ and Compellor™ master compressor/leveller.
