Roland V-1HD+ HD Video Switcher

The V-1HD+ is an HD Video Switcher that builds on Roland's popular V-1HD four-channel switcher, providing a deeper feature set for advanced switching applications while maintaining the simple operation, professional performance, and rugged reliability of the V-1HD. Offering versatile HDMI I/O, extensive control options, essential monitoring tools, and 14-channel audio mixing with legendary Roland sound quality, the V-1HD+ is the ultimate compact A/V switching solution.

From live events and corporate settings to educational establishments and houses of worship, the V-1HD+ is inspired by the need for today’s creators to do more. Four HDMI inputs allow for mixing a variety of video sources, including cameras, computers, tablets, and gaming consoles, and with built-in scaling users can automatically sync and calibrate troublesome video sources without additional hardware.

The tactile Japanese-engineered hardware interface allows for smooth and hassle-free operation providing quick access to the system menu, downstream key on/off, transition type, picture-in-picture, effects on/off, and other commonly used functions. PGM and PST busses and a transition/fade T-Bar are also included, as are tactile audio volume knobs, signal/peak lights, and unity gain markers.

An integrated 14-channel digital audio mixer with two XLR mic inputs and selectable phantom power, plus 1/8-inch and RCA line inputs provide extensive professional audio capabilities with three-ban equalisation, high-pass filter, compressor, and noise gate, plus delay available per channel. Furthermore XLR and 1/8-inch inputs feature de-essers to clean up vocal sounds in real time.

V-1HD+ incorporates extensive real-time A/V monitoring, including a 10-window multiviewer display that can be applied to one or both HDMI outputs, as well as a powerful effects engine allowing operators to add lower-third titles, logos, social media comments, and more. The DSK (downstream keyer) layer can independently composite a picture-in-picture window on top of a video feed, which is especially useful for live and online hybrid events.

Integration with tally light systems, compatibility with Atomos external monitor-recorders and RS-232 infrastructure round out the V-1HD+ capabilities.
