Say Goodbye to Workflow Workarounds

While many video switchers promise easy workflows, they often require workarounds for optimum results. Too often, those workarounds force you into technical compromises and purchasing extra gear. With its feature-rich design, the Roland V1 HD Plus provides the key tools you need to get the job done right.


A Legacy of Success

Since its release in 2015, the Roland V-1HD has been the most popular high-definition, four-channel HDMI video switcher available. V1 HD Plus extends this legacy with a deeper feature set for advanced applications—while still maintaining the simple operation, pro performance, and rugged reliability that’s made the V-1HD a favorite of users around the world.


No-Compromise Video I/O

Video professionals shouldn’t be forced into making technical compromises. With its full-featured video I/O, the V1 HD Plus is inspired by your need to do more.


Four Video Inputs and Onboard Scaling

Four HDMI inputs with frame rate conversion let you mix a variety of sources, including cameras, presentation computers, tablets, and video game consoles. And when you have a troublesome source that won’t display correctly, simply plug it into Input 4 and let the built-in video scaler sync and calibrate the image automatically.


Two Video Outputs

Two independent HDMI outputs can be assigned to display one of three different video busses, providing the versatility you need for pro production. For example, you can use one as your main program output for a recorder or livestream, and the second output to turn any HD video monitor into an “up-next” input preview display or expanded multiviewer with 10 windows.


14-Channel Audio Mixing with Effects

The Roland V1HD Plus allows a single operator to do more than switch cameras—they can mix professional sound too. The integrated 14-channel digital audio mixer blends HDMI audio with mic and line sources, and also offers a variety of onboard effects to sweeten mixes.


Audio Inputs

With two XLR mic inputs and selectable phantom power, the V1HD Plus lets you bring pro-grade microphones into your productions, including condenser broadcast mics. There’s also an 1/8-inch input for a lavalier mic or stereo audio source like a smartphone, plus another stereo input on RCA jacks. Embedded stereo audio from the four HDMI inputs can be included in your mix as well.


Audio Outputs

With the Roland V-1HD+, there’s no need for a dedicated small audio console. Distribute analog sound to a PA system via two balanced ¼-inch TRS outputs, and use embedded digital audio in the HDMI outputs to feed recorders and livestream broadcasts.


Audio Effects

Leave the outboard gear in the recording studio—each audio input on the Roland V1HD Plus has its own three-band equalizer, high-pass filter, compressor, and noise gate, plus a sync delay to align audio with video if needed. The XLR and 1/8-inch inputs also include de-essers to clean up vocal sounds in real time. And with the limiter, three-band equalizer and compressor on the main outputs, you can deliver broadcast-quality sound every time.
