RØDE has officially introduced RØDE CallMe, a groundbreaking feature that redefines remote content creation for users of the RØDECaster Pro II and RØDECaster Duo.
Developed in partnership with UK broadcast tech pioneer Vortex Communications, the new feature enables broadcast-quality, ultra-low latency remote audio without the need for external software or hardware.
Available now via a free firmware update, RØDE CallMe harnesses Vortex’s CallMe IP audio codec to deliver secure, seamless connectivity over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. Users can connect to another RØDECaster device or invite a remote guest via a simple web interface, email link, or QR code—no downloads or complex setups required.
“RØDE CallMe marks a groundbreaking leap forward in remote production,” said Damien Wilson, CEO of RØDE. “By removing technical and geographical barriers, we’re giving creators and professionals studio-grade tools that are intuitive and powerful.”

RØDE CallMe is designed to serve creators at every level, offering three tiered subscription plans accessible via account.rode.com:

This powerful new feature continues RØDE’s legacy of empowering creators worldwide with professional-grade tools built into devices they already know and trust.
