Roland V-80HD Direct Streaming Video Switcher + Graphics Presenter

The new compact, 8-channel V-80HD Direct Streaming Video Switcher by Roland covers comprehensive video needs for in-person events, livestreaming, studio production, and more. And using the companion Graphics Presenter software, easily add impressive titles, motion graphics, and more to enhance your productions.

Comprehensive I/O Interface
HDMI and SDI ports on the V-80HD form a versatile interface compatible with A/V devices and high-end cameras. Eight total channels are available on the switcher for up to four HDMI and four SDI input sources. Two of the HDMI inputs are equipped with UHD 4K downscalers, allowing you to send parallel connections to other consoles. An SRT input can be assigned to a cross-point button in tandem with an SDI and an HDMI input. Multiple assignable outputs—SDI, HDMI, USB-C, and LAN—create a high-end video matrix. Each output can be assigned to 10 buses and feed program displays, auxiliary monitors, multiview producer displays, and online audiences simultaneously.

Video Effects Engine, Professional Graphics
The V-80HD has an onboard effects engine with five composition layers, including split-screen, two Picture-in-Picture windows, and one DSK with fill/key composite support. Manage the layers individually on the Program, Sub-Program, and two Aux outputs. Graphics Presenter software for Windows OS can create titles and graphics without requiring third-party solutions. One HDMI connection can send fill and key signals from your Windows computer to the switcher.

Plug-and-Play Streaming
Use the USB-C port to output your video directly to a computer or smartphone for direct streaming to Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or other UVC platforms. An RJ45 LAN port supports direct streaming to YouTube, Facebook Live, Twitch, or other RTMP platforms without requiring a computer.

SD Card Slot for Onboard Recording
Insert an SD card into the slot on the front of the V-80HD to record H.264 MP4 files. Stereo WAV audio can also be recorded independently for use in podcasts. Capture still images to internal memory from any output bus and save them to the card for future use.

PTZ Camera Support
Built-in PTZ control on the V-80HD supports select Canon, LVC, Panasonic, Sony, PTZOptics, Avonic, and other VISCA-compatible LAN cameras. You can operate up to 16 PTZ cameras simultaneously and can even use the Remote iPad app in tandem for further control and video monitoring.

Sequence and Create Scenes
You can store and recall custom looks or utilize the 32 scene memories for seamless scene changes within your program output. Create complex action lists that include switching, DSK on/off, audio adjustments, PTZ camera movements, and more. Remote control software for your macOS, Windows, and iPad devices provides a large interface for setting up and previewing actions. The V-80HD's embedded sequencer allows a single operator to execute timed cues with ease. Record up to 1000 steps of both scenes and macros, triggering them in order using the Next button on the panel.

Audio Mixing and Effects
Combo XLR-1/4" audio inputs with +48V phantom power integrate audio sources with embedded audio for up to 28 channels of audio mixing. A wide selection of processing tools, I/O routing options, and automation features are included in the V-80HD's interface. Enhance sounds with high-quality vocal processing and gain function to manage audio levels. An onboard audio player integrated music and sound effects. Three output buses route audio for streaming and studio recording applications.

Customizable Control Pads
Eight user-assignable pads provide quick control over the V-80HD. The pads are divided into eight banks for direct access to 64 different operations. Call up scenes, macros, and sequencer steps, trigger audio and video clips, and start/stop streams, among other functions. You can even control the Graphics Presenter software when your host computer is connected to the unit.
