Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
No sourced tester review yet.
Two whitelisted pro-audio testers (Sound on Sound, MusicRadar) hands-on reviewed the Rode RodeCaster Pro II and both call it the best all-in-one podcast workstation available: clean, high-gain Revolution preamps, flexible dual-USB connectivity and a slick 5.5-inch touchscreen. Neither ran lab measurements. The chief gripe is that it is locked to 24-bit/48kHz. (2 sourced reviews.)
Praised: Clean, low-noise Revolution preamps with plenty of gain; Flexible dual-USB connectivity to two devices simultaneously; Large 5.5-inch touchscreen and easy, tactile operation.
Flagged: Fixed to 24-bit/48kHz, so no high-res interface use; Channel compressor caps at 4.5:1 ratio, limiting music use.
