Roland VR-50HD MK II Multi-Format AV Mixer with USB 3.0 Streaming
All-in-one convenience and ultra-flexible connectivity.
The powerful Roland VR-50HD MK II is a completely self-contained AV solution, consolidating
video switching, digital audio mixing, multi-viewer touchscreen control, and USB AV streaming into a single unit that’s simple to run. And with the comprehensive
rear patch panel, it’s quick and easy to make on-the-fly input assignments to cross-points on the switcher.
Separate feeds for separate needs.
Live streams, HD recording, and presenter confidence monitor often have separate visual needs from the main program output. The Roland VR-50HD MK II has you
covered, allowing you to send any of the connected input devices to a dedicated Aux output without affecting the main PGM destination. Use the Aux assignment
panel buttons to switch the source, or synchronize the Aux output with the PGM (mixer) output to act as a built-in distribution amp.
Pro sound made easy.
Great sound is always expected for events and live streams, but employing a dedicated audio engineer doesn’t always fit the budget.
The Roland VR-50HD MK II eliminates this problem, offering a number of automation functions that allow a single operator to switch video and mix
pro-level audio at the same time. Use Auto Mixing to balance audio levels, Video Follows Audio to switch cameras based on sound input, and Anti-Feedback to
automatically tame howling mic feedback.
The Roland VR-50HD MK II is also equipped with a variety of standard audio production inputs, including four XLR/TRS combo jacks
with 48 V phantom power, four stereo pairs (two ¼-inch and two RCA), and embedded audio from 3G/HD/SD-SDI and HDMI.
Integrated PTZ camera control.
Robotic pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras eliminate the need for multiple camera operators, provide great production coverage with studio-grade
broadcast quality, and can be placed in discreet locations thanks to their small size. The VR-50HD MK II includes built-in support to directly control select JVC
and Panasonic PTZ LAN cameras, so you don’t need to employ a dedicated PTZ camera controller or operator. Up to six PTZ cameras can be operated at once via
the LAN port.
Intelligence built in.
The Roland VR-50HD MK II is equipped with a number of intelligent audio mixing and video
switching functions to enhance your workflow. See the VR-50HD MK II’s intelligent functions in action.
