This Roland V-1HD Switcher with UVC-01 Encoder Bundle enables you to switch and stream from four different HD signals, and then convert the output to UVC for recording or streaming from your computer. The UVC encoder requires no external power and encodes a variety of HD formats. It supports video via an HDMI input, and it has a built-in auxiliary audio input. The switcher is a portable solution for HD video production that accommodates up to four HD inputs. Each input has a frame buffer/TBC, so you don't need to genlock your input sources together. You can control the switcher manually by using the built-in controls or connect it to a computer or iPad running optional software for electronic control. Select your working resolution and switch between your four input sources. Built into the switcher is a 12-channel audio mixer that can de-embed and embed audio signals from HDMI.
The integrated T-fader allows you to manually control the speed of transitions, or you can use the take button to actuate your selected transition. The unit features a program and multiview preview output, as well as an analog audio input and output. Though small in size, it allows you to perform picture-in-picture, green screen, and other keying effects, while a transform control enables advanced video effects on your footage.
V-1HD Portable 4 x HDMI Input Switcher
HD Switcher
This portable HD switcher supports four inputs of HD video, allowing you to select 1080i, 1080p, or 720p as your input source. Each input incorporates a frame buffer/TBC that allows you to use non-genlocked cameras, as well as play-out devices as video sources. You select the broadcast system (59.94/50 Hz) within the menu. The format selector switch is a global switch that affects the input and output format. However, with the switch in either of the 1080 options, the V-1HD enables input of both 1080i and 1080p signals.
Audio Mixer
The built-in 12-channel audio mixer allows you to de-embed audio from the HDMI stream, mix, and re-embed the audio into your output stream. The audio mixer is accessed by a connected PC running the available software.
Output Modes
The V-1HD features two HDMI outputs—one output always shows your switched program output, while the other (preview) can be switched between program output and multiview of your four sources.
Control Buttons
The soft rubber backlit buttons allow you to easily see the condition of your switcher, even in dim lighting conditions.
- Red: Indicates the current source being output
- Green: Indicates the video source that will be output on the next transition
Transitions
There are three buttons for applying transition effects: Cut, Mix (4 types), and Wipe (30 types).
Beat-per-Minute Sync
By using the T-fader bar and the BP-Sync button, you can deliver visuals synced to a music performance.
Memory
The Memory button allows you to save or recall up to eight presets, and the Freeze button can temporarily pause the incoming video.
Transformer Buttons
These buttons can be used to switch your video instantly or for applying effects.
Transitions

You can control the unit from a music instrument or a sequencer via the MIDI input connector via MIDI. The V-1HD also transmits MIDI over USB and its controls can be mapped to popular visual performance software applications.
