Bruh!!! Thanks for showing me how to get my rodecaster working… I been having it 2-3 months and haven’t used it at all cause I couldn’t figure it out!!! I’ve been doing my podcasts without the extras… Now I’m glad I got it working cause I can add the extras in… 💯💯💯💯 Sound bites and what not right into the show! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾😜😜😜😜
Man I've come back to your video MULTIPLE times now. The first time was the inital setup of the RCP and Audacity, and now again when I had some issues with an audacity error and decided to just start everything again from the beginning, and following your steps got me back up and running again. THANK YOU!
Great video! Although I'm using the Rodecaster Pro as a tool for live shows this tutorial is super useful for things like interviews, i.e. imagine interviewing multiple people and someone wants to know exactly what someone said before airing the interview, being able to locate that specific track is a game changer, especially when a few expletives may slip through the net lol. Thanks again for the great walkthrough!! Top Man! Best Kris Edinburgh, Scotland

Thank you so much for this video! It was brilliantly put together and easy to follow! Looking forward to more of your work. Watching all the way from Ireland and much appreciated the help 🇮🇪👍.
I didn't know that Audacity can record multiple tracks simultaneously. I tried it with my personal mixer, Behringer Flow 8, and it works perfectly. Thanks!
You did a great job in this tutorial. As a Commercial Radio Production Director and Program Director for over 30 years, I taught Radio Broadcasting at a college in Chicago for 10 years. I never liked Audacity after using Cool Edit Pro then Adobe Audition. Because of your tutorial, I am going to give Audacity another go with my RodeCaster Pro. Thank you for this tutorial.

Thanks a lot for this quick and easy tutorial, especially since there is no Audacity guidelines for multitrack recording on the RODE website.
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan Yours is the first video I have come across that actually shows what happens in Audacity when using multitrack throught the RODEcaster. Kudos!
Can you explain to me why I have to set it to recording all 14 tracks tho instead of just the four imma need… Both stereo tracks and 1 for me and another for my cohost…!?
Having it recording 14 tracks just allows separate tracks if you want to mix or change a picticular track. When you go to save you can just save the tracks you choose to save. The choice is yours of course.
@@altimorefields2707 Did you go into the rodecaster and set them up like in the video. I also said you might need to unplug usb and plug back in. lmk if thats works.
Here's a question you may not get very often, what if you are using a platform like riverside or zoom for your shows? I'm guessing that riverside automatically just uses whatever audio but you can still use audacity at the same time.
OK so the thing about web based streaming is when you change the RCP to muilttrack do you still have your audio choice for riverside?? If so then just hit record on the RCP and record to sd card or yes hit record in Audacity. I now have the RCP2 so not sure if it's the same.
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan I greatly appreciate your response most of the time my comments just go into cyberspace. I did a test I decided to use riverside and record on the roadcaster pro on a micro SD card, sure enough both programs recorded at the same time, it's just that the sound is much better using the roadcaster pro. That being said I have not used audacity and the USB chord with Riverside just yet, but I plan on trying it out too. Here's a big question for you, the reason I want to do multi track is that way I can control the audio of the person who's joining in on the conversation. If you're recording directly into an SD card without the multi track then you can't control the other person's volume if it's too loud. When I recorded the multitrack directly into the SD card I wound up with 14 tracks which is to be expected, but 3 out of 4 of these tracks had everyone's voices attached to them. I was hoping that the multitrack system would break up everybody's voices. Is there a way around this?
So I'm guessing these people aren't in the same room...that would be why you have voices not separated. I think being the original rcp doesn't have routing and you are using a web based service leaves you kinda hand cuffed. Also since they aren't in the same room on 1 of 4 mic outputs. If I can find something I'll let you know...but I think your limited where your at right now.
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan I conducted a test with me and another fellow listener host. We were in the studio together but we did not use any platform such as riverside. It was a direct recording into the micro SD.
Thanks for the video. I got mine setup now so it records the way it should BUT i think I need to get another DAW as I cant use the Rode ASIO driver that just came out without building Audacity by myself and the guide to do so seems to be a pain. But ASIO would cut out some of those latency issues as that is why all of us wished for ASIO from Rode.
Exactly I'm using the beta firmware too with asio drivers. First thing I did was to see if Audacity would let me use them. It was a no go but that can change.
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan its not going to change you have to build it yourself to use ASIO and isn't allowed to be pushed out anywhere built with asio. Look at their guide, tell you how to go about doing it. I am swapping to reaper. Have asio and midi right from the start. 60 bucks for the software isn't bad at all for what it does. Yes it's not the best for music production and one can go toward say cubase elements but for say podcasts I think there is nothing better for the price. Time to go pull an espresso now for myself, just got a package of beans from my favorite roaster.
Great video! I'm buying the Rodecastr pro. Been wanting the touch pads, and phone option for my Podcast. I want my partner to be able to hear what I playing either on my phone, or the touch pads, remotely. Will he be able to hear this on Zoom ?
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan I tend to agree with you man. Just from my untrained ear videos I’ve watched with the procaster versus the zoom H6 with say an SM7B the quality on the zoom H6 sounds a little bit better I’m looking for a voiceover capture device but I also do a podcast that’s why I’m on the fence with the rodecaster but being new to all this part of me wonders why I can’t get a USB mic and plug directly into audacity but I found out real quick that that is nowhere close to the quality of an analog set up
@@DavidBrackett385 I mean I sold the rodecaster because it didnt fit my needs. I bought the wave xlr to use my RE320 witch is great to add VST'S to but I do have a motu m2 audio interface witch the preamps are amazing both mic and headphones. I also have a dbx286s that I use with my wave xlr witch gives me the freedom of audio routing with wavelink and the great processing of the dbx. Lmk it you need anymore info.
Great video, but I am stuck and I watched it twice. When I select RODECaster Multichannel (I did do the unplug the USB part), and only then, nothing picks up in Audacity. Not even triggered sounds from the pads and not my mic...please help.
Thanks for watching...if your able to add multitrack input and output your pc is picking it up correctly. Next I would just try a reboot and see what you get.
@@CoffeeTalkandTechJohnRyan Grateful for the speedy response - I am at a loss though. I tried the reboot route to no avail so I uninstalled and reinstalled Audacity and it is still an issue. I checked mic setting in control panel and they are correct. Any other ideas?
Maybe double check your setting in Audacity make sure nothing is out of spec...also like it says in video do not start a new track just hit record and the tracks should all show up separately.
I appreciate your help man. I have a question/problem... I keep getting a "Error code -9997"... And idk... Have you experienced this? Thanks.. I'm new and excited about using the rodecaster but must admit im rather green when it comes to the technicals! Thanks in advance!
OK so let's say I have two mics going. I get tracks 1-4 will be the only ones with audio showing. But lets say mic 2 (track 4) is quieter than mic 1 (track 3) due to something as simple as a quiet voice. If I edit track 4 and up it's levels, will that automatically adjust the audio for tracks 1&2? Or what exactly is the purpose of tracks 1&2 if it's going to automatically put all the tracks together when you export it?
@@ColdAddict 1 and 2 would be one mono track by itself and 3 and 4 would be one mono track by itself and they are totally separate so no it wouldn't change one or the other.
Just make sure you watch about how to save them so the are separate. If you did what I showed and it's not working I have no idea. This was almost a year ago.
This was the only video i found that shows how to do multi-track recording in audacity using a Rodecaster pro. For the past year I been using a Motu M2 for my podcasts but here in the future I want to invest in a rodecaster pro but I want to learn how I would use it using with the 4 mic inputs since I have always recorded and edited using only 2 mic inputs and never experienced doing a 3-4 person podcast
