What is included in AX Studio Pro?
The AX Studio Pro bundle includes 5 main products, with one of each supplied in the finishes shown below. Product accessories and the full connection guide are listed further down.
INCLUDED COMPONENT 1 · QUANTITY 1
Shure SM7dB dynamic vocal microphone
The SM7dB is the voice-capture microphone in AX Studio Pro. It combines a cardioid dynamic capsule with a switchable built-in preamp, giving the familiar close-address broadcast workflow with additional gain available directly at the microphone.
- Switchable built-in gain: Choose +18 dB or +28 dB of microphone preamp gain, or bypass the preamp for passive operation. The active modes require 48 V phantom power, supplied by the RØDECaster Duo.
- Response shaping: Rear-panel bass roll-off and presence-emphasis switches let you adjust the response for the voice or source. The published frequency range is 50 Hz–20 kHz.
- Control of unwanted sound: The cardioid pickup pattern, internal air-suspension shock isolation and foam windscreen help manage off-axis sound, mechanical noise and plosives. The microphone's shielding reduces susceptibility to electromagnetic hum.
- Mounting and connection: An adjustable yoke supports positioning on the PSA1+ arm. The 3-pin XLR output connects to the Duo through the included cable, and the microphone weighs 837 g.
- Active and passive electrical modes: Output impedance is 27 Ohm with the preamp engaged and 150 Ohm in bypass. Active operation draws up to 4.5 mA of 48 V phantom power; select the intended mode before setting the mixer gain.
- Included windscreens: The supplied standard foam windscreen and larger A7WS close-talk windscreen provide options for working distance and plosive control, with a 5/8-inch to 3/8-inch thread adapter for mounting.
Mount the SM7dB on the black PSA1+ and connect it to the Duo with the orange XLR3M. Either enable the microphone's active preamp with 48 V phantom power, or select bypass and use the Duo's available gain. This pairing does not require a separate inline booster.

INCLUDED COMPONENT 2 · QUANTITY 1
RØDE RØDECaster Duo audio production studio — Black
The black RØDECaster Duo handles microphone gain, headphone monitoring, audio processing, mixing and recording for this one-presenter setup. It can operate with a computer or record to compatible removable storage, with spare input capacity for a future second microphone.
- Revolution microphone preamps: Two Neutrik XLR / 6.35 mm TRS combo inputs accept microphones, instruments or line-level devices. The preamps offer up to 76 dB gain and a published −131.5 dBV A-weighted equivalent input noise, plus switchable 48 V phantom power.
- Mixing surface: Four physical faders and three virtual faders provide seven assignable channels. A 5.5-inch touchscreen and rotary encoder handle channel settings, meters and configuration.
- Processing and SMART pads: APHEX processing includes Aural Exciter, Big Bottom and Compellor, alongside EQ, compression, gating, high-pass filtering and de-essing. Six SMART pads with bank switching can trigger audio, effects, mixer actions and MIDI commands.
- Monitoring connections: Two rear 6.35 mm headphone outputs have independent level control. Balanced 6.35 mm line outputs connect to suitable monitors, and a 3.5 mm TRRS connection supports a compatible headset.
- Computer and wireless integration: Dual USB-C audio connections support compatible computer or mobile workflows. Bluetooth can bring in phone audio, and the built-in Series IV wireless receiver supports compatible RØDE transmitters, which are sold separately.
- Recording destinations: Record a stereo mix or multitrack audio to a computer, compatible microSD card or USB storage device. The bundle does not supply recording storage. Audio operation is at 48 kHz.
- Expansion and firmware: Supported firmware adds functions such as compatible RØDE USB microphone input and RØDE CallMe network audio over Wi-Fi or Ethernet. These functions require the relevant firmware, compatible equipment and service setup; extra microphones are not included.
- Power and footprint: Use the supplied power adapter; the power requirement is USB-C PD 9 V / 3 A. The unit measures 235 × 225 × 76 mm and weighs about 1,131 g. Its supplied SC27 USB-C cable connects a compatible USB-C host.
In AX Studio Pro, the black Duo is the microphone interface, mixer, headphone amplifier and recorder. One XLR input and one headphone pair equip the included presenter; adding a second person requires their own microphone, headphones, support and cable.

INCLUDED COMPONENT 3 · QUANTITY 1
beyerdynamic DT 770 PRO X 48 Ohm closed-back headphones
The DT 770 PRO X supplies closed-back monitoring for voice recording and editing. Its enclosed earcups help reduce sound leakage compared with an open-back design, making it suitable for checking the microphone signal while working close to the SM7dB.
- STELLAR.45 driver: The 48 Ohm driver covers a published frequency range of 5–40,000 Hz. This is the DT 770 PRO X model, rather than the fixed-cable DT 770 PRO 80 Ohm or the DT 700 PRO X.
- Closed over-ear design: The earcups surround the ears and provide passive acoustic isolation. Keep the headphone level appropriate for the session; closed-back construction does not make the recording space soundproof.
- Detachable 3 m cable: A locking mini-XLR connection attaches the cable to the headphone. The 3.5 mm equipment plug includes a 6.35 mm adapter for the Duo's rear headphone outputs.
- Comfort and adjustment: Velour pads, an adjustable spring-steel headband and headband padding with a central recess support extended desk use. The headphones weigh 305 g without the cable.
- Serviceable German construction: Replaceable pads, headband padding and cable support maintenance over time. There is no built-in microphone, Bluetooth or active noise cancellation.
Fit the supplied 6.35 mm adapter and connect the DT 770 PRO X to one of the Duo's rear headphone outputs. Set that output's level independently while checking the live microphone signal and the rest of the mix.

INCLUDED COMPONENT 4 · QUANTITY 1
RØDE PSA1+ microphone boom arm — Black
The PSA1+ suspends the microphone above the desk and lets you move it closer for recording or swing it away when finished. Its parallelogram mechanism keeps the microphone's orientation consistent as the arm moves, while damped springs and neoprene covers help reduce noise from adjustment.
- Supported microphone load: The arm accommodates a combined microphone and mount load from 94 g to 1.2 kg. Include any additional mount or accessory in that total when changing the setup.
- Positioning range: It provides up to 940 mm horizontal reach, 860 mm vertical reach and 360-degree rotation, giving room to place the microphone beside a monitor or keyboard.
- Two mounting methods: A desk clamp and threaded desk insert are supplied. The clamp supports compatible desk surfaces up to 70 mm thick; the insert supports up to 55 mm and requires an appropriate mounting hole.
- Integrated cable management: Cable guides route USB or XLR leads along the arm. Leave a small service loop at the microphone and moving joints so adjustment does not pull on the connectors.
- Microphone fitting and construction: A supplied thread adapter supports common microphone mounting threads. The arm weighs approximately 1.52 kg; use a stable, suitable desk surface and tighten the mounting hardware before positioning the microphone.
The black PSA1+ supports the SM7dB and lets you position it for close speech capture. The SM7dB body is 837 g; keep the combined microphone, mounting and accessory load within the arm's 1.2 kg limit. Guide the orange XLR cable along the arm.

INCLUDED COMPONENT 5 · QUANTITY 1
RØDE XLR3M 3 m premium XLR cable — Orange
The XLR3M completes the analogue microphone connection in this bundle. Its 3 m length provides a route from the microphone, along the arm and down to the mixer without adding another cable purchase for that signal path.
- Balanced 3-pin connection: Female XLR connects to the microphone's output, and male XLR connects to the mixer's microphone input. The cable carries the analogue microphone signal between those devices.
- Cable and connectors: RØDE specifies Canare cable with Neutrik connectors and strain relief for repeated studio use. The connectors lock into compatible XLR sockets for a secure connection.
- Routing on the arm: Use the PSA1+ cable guides and leave slack at moving joints and the microphone connector. The cable is 3 m long and one cable is included.
- Exact function: This is an XLR-to-XLR microphone cable. It is not a USB converter, audio interface or headphone cable; the included mixer handles the computer connection.
The fixed orange XLR3M connects the SM7dB to a Duo combo input. It carries the microphone signal and, when enabled on the Duo, phantom power for the SM7dB's active preamp. One orange cable is included.

Connect the SM7dB, RØDECaster Duo and DT 770 PRO X
- Secure the PSA1+ to the desk and attach the SM7dB. Connect the orange XLR cable from the microphone to one of the Duo's XLR/TRS combo inputs.
- Connect the Duo's supplied power adapter. Choose the microphone's mode: +18 dB or +28 dB active preamp requires 48 V phantom power on that Duo input; bypass uses the microphone passively with gain supplied by the Duo.
- Fit the DT 770 PRO X's 6.35 mm adapter and connect it to a rear headphone output. Start with the headphone level low, speak at the recording distance and set input gain without clipping.
- For computer recording, connect the Duo through USB and select it in the recording application. For standalone recording, insert supported microSD or USB storage and configure the stereo or multitrack recording format; storage is sold separately.
- Assign channels, adjust processing and configure SMART pads for the session. Make a short test recording and listen back before a full podcast or stream.
AX Studio Pro equips one presenter. The Duo's second microphone input and additional monitoring connections provide expansion capacity, but a second microphone, headphones, arm and cable are not supplied. Compatible Windows and macOS computers can use its USB audio workflow.
