Roland V-02HD MK II Multi-Format Video Mixer with Streaming

Simple and fast to set up and control, the Roland V-02HD MK II Multi-Format Video Mixer makes it easy to switch between two HDMI sources using pushbuttons, a T-bar, or an optional foot-pedal switch, and output via HDMI or USB Type-C for easy streaming from your Windows or Mac computer. This portable HD switcher is small enough to fit in your gear bag. It can be mounted onto a standard tripod, so it doesn't require a rack arrangement to use it on location. Its compact size and lightweight design make it well suited for use on mobile video productions.

Although small in size, the V-02HD MK II is loaded with features, including individual scalers on the input and both the program and preview output. The V-02HD MK II features a T-bar for smooth transitions, a graphics select knob, effects select, effects control, and a menu button. The switcher powers from an included AC power supply.

The USB output stream is recognized by your computer as a camera source, so it requires no additional encoding by your computer to stream to virtually any streaming platform, including Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, and Zoom. It also integrates seamlessly with OBS Studio, Streamlabs OBS, StreamYard, and Restream.

This video mixer also features a 10-channel digital audio mixer with full mixing functions for all audio sources, including the mixer's two 3.5mm stereo mic jacks that support powered or unpowered microphones. Mix audio from different sources, including microphones, audio from a smartphone, embedded audio, and other sources. The audio mixer functions enable adding studio polish to your program with compressor, EQ, and reverb effects. The unique voice changer effect allows you to have fun with format-shifting and robot sounds. It's also possible to independently delay the audio inputs and outputs (including the headphone output) if you have any synchronization issues with your cameras.

Using the optional V-02HD MK II RCS application for either macOS or Windows allows you to control nearly all the functions of the mixer simultaneously using the same USB connection the mixer uses to send the program out to your computer for streaming. The application can run on your computer while it streams your video, so you can switch and stream your show while using only your computer.

Turn your iPad into an efficient touch interface for the V-02HD MK II with the dedicated V-02HD MK II Remote app. The app allows you to run essential switching functions, mix audio with virtual faders, change settings and effects parameters quickly, and create up to eight custom scenes for seamless setup changes, all from your iPad.

With the V-02HD MK II, you get free access to Roland's AeroCaster Switcher for iPad, a powerful solution that enables you to wirelessly connect and switch up to five smartphone or tablet cameras, then output a combined program feed to the V-02HD MK II or another supported Roland switcher with an HDMI input.
