Michael Rodenberg, nickname Miro, is a German keyboardist and musical producer known for working with power metal bands such as Angra, Shaaman, Rhapsody of Fire, Kamelot, Heavens Gate, et al. He mainly works in conjunction with his some-time bandmate Sascha Paeth.

In addition to his production work, Miro has provided guest appearances for many of the bands he works with as a keyboardist, and also provides orchestral arrangements. He served a particularly long period as a guest of Kamelot, providing all keyboards on their studio albums from 1999 until 2005, when they hired tour musician Oliver Palotai as a full-time member.

In 2004, he participated in Aina, a metal opera featuring many guest heavy metal musicians.

In 2007, he and Sacha Paeth also helped to reborn Tobias Sammet's metal opera Avantasia, with the albums of The Wicked Trilogy (which Miro played most of the keyboard parts and orchestrations) and also leading it to two world tours.
