I've been researching the V-1HD for a few months now, and this was the most in-depth, informative product review I've found. Thanks for putting this up, I'll be sure to check out your website as well!
Thanks for watching, Robert--and thanks for the kind words! Let me know if you need any help with your setup. jason@dvestore.com
Does it use xlr input audio ?
@@iglesiasembrandoesperanza3457 No

No
what should i be using to record my video?
Agree with Robert Mitcham, this is the best review on the V-1HD that I could find. VERY informative with no waffle. Many thanks for this. 5 Stars!
Really great you went through all the functions!!! Love this unit!!! Thanks !!!!!
Thanks for watching, Tariq!
Fantastic video, this setup is muuuuuuch cheaper than others that I was looking at and still offers a lot of flexibility!
Thanks, Matt! The V-1HD is a solid and capable little unit.
Really great video! Awesome explanations and options. The additional suggestions for SDI and Ethernet were very helpful! Really appreciate it!
Thanks for watching, James!
Great Video, learned a lot about the features of this mixer!!!
Thanks!
Thank you for spending time on the audio menus, every other video jumps over this detail.
Brilliant video! Answers a lot immediate questions for those discovering this product for the first time :-)
Thanks for watching, Keith!
This was the perfect level of information that I needed, and I appreciate it.
Thanks for watching, Rob!
Great Presentation - Thanks. I'm Ordering mine ASAP.
Great Video. Thanks for all the information!
Thanks for the input, got a second hand unit for grandchildren's party's 4 2 and 1. One tv 3 computers UA-cam etc did with a hdmi switcher, worked but !! Now next one like a pro.... Not easy explaining all that stuff well done. Kind regards Rob
ThankS my man i appreciate it. God bless you
Very informative. Gonna buy one. Thanks for your demo
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!
Glad to be of service! Let us know if there are any other videos that we should be making.
Great walk through ! Top Job !
Thanks for watching, Dean!
This was super helpful! Thanks
Thank you for your intelligent and thorough review and explanation!
Thanks for the kind words, Lucas!
Very nice video! Very informative thank you!
Thanks for tuning in!
Great review, have to check this Roland switcher!
Thanks for watching!
Great video, it helped answer a lot of questions I had about the unit. Would love to see a little more on the PIP option as well as general use and recommended gear, such as what microphone you were using as it sounded very good in the video.
Hi, Robert: I'm glad I could answer some questions for you! I was using a very nice lav mic; either a Sanken, Rode or DPA. I think it was the DPA. As far as other gear, I could recommend cameras for you, or is there something else specifically you are looking for. I'm going to work on some more short tutorials over the next month and setting up a PIP will be one.
great product and a great video. what is the difference this model and the sdi4 ?
awesome demo. thanks!!
Happy to help, Torrin!
great video! thank you
THE BEAST IN PRODUCTION SWITCH
Thank you for the informative video
Great demo. I'm contemplating ditching my Blackmagic Design Atem TVS for this unit.
thank you so,much for posting this
You are very welcome.
Thanks for the in-depth talk about this product. Trying to find a switcher to use for my church's live stream. I wish you talked a little more about the audio jacks. An example of how I'd do a set up for a live stage or church live stream production set up, including audio coming from a mixer...
Thank you. Great Video.
Thanks for the kind words!
hello again Jason. please i need that cord or devise to connect my Iphon to the Roland.
as always, thank you
Which iPhone are you using?
Thanks for the Demo. Is there anyway to store an image/logo and assign it to a channel? I saw the freeze button on the unit. Does that freeze the output or the selected input? (could you freeze an image on a channel and disconnect the source device?)
Great in-depth review. Question: when I set up PIP, I cannot switch the main picture using mix or wipe, it cannot only hard cut. Is there a way to do have PIP and use Mix or Wipe to switch the main picture? Thanks
Thank you very much for this in-depth video! Do the cameras/HDMI inputs have to be at the same frame rate? With Blackmagic Design Atem TV Studio HD, it requires that all the cameras to have the same framerate for it to function. (59.94fps, 29.94)
Great video! I'm looking to start streaming my church services live to UA-cam and I have a few questions.
1. Can I run the feed from the switcher to our DVD recorder?
2. How do I input name keys and other footage into the switcher?
3. I will be using the audio we have from our audio board. Will I be able to record the video from the switcher and the audio from our board together?
4. Do I need any additional equipment to livestream to UA-cam? I.e. Capture Cards, software?
5. How do I get visuals from a computer to the switcher?
6. Lastly, is there anything else I need to know/get to successfully livestream?
Thanks in advance!
Can the FREEZE function be used a re-callable "go to/logo" from an image from laptop say, and be stored in the switcher to be recalled from one of the input channels?
Thanks a lot!
Wow! Great video, nice pace, all of it. BUT I was looking for something more simple to switch between 2 cams to self produce videos at home. Any advice? Oh, what brought me to this Rolan is the foot switch/trigger
Thank you for the great video! Did you choose the atomos for having a monitor and recorder or is it necessary to record correctly? Are streaming & record devices like the Datavideo NVS-25 or the blackmagic design h264 pro recorder enough to record a video for editing? I may have to do also streaming so I wonder if this could be a solution instead of having the atomos and the teradek vidiU. It will be really helful to have a response!
What a great video! Fantastic job covering all the details!
2 questions.
1. Can I use the Luma key to put my company’s logo I. The corner of the broadcasted video? Like a watermark.
2. In your example towards the end of putting your singer overlayed in the website background, does that work only because she is standing I front if a white backdrop, similar to a green screen? If I get this product, it will be for live concerts. So the background in my case will be a stage with lots of colors and clutter. Will it somehow be able to cut things/people out the same way as it did your singer? Or again, only because she had a white backdrop behind her? Thank you so much! I look forward to your response.
Hello, congratulations on the great video.
One question: even how many meters of hdmi cable does it support?
Thank you,
Thanks! I don't recommend using HDMI cables longer than 10 meters. If you need your cameras farther away, you should convert to SDI, then back to HDMI, or look into the Roland V-1SDI. www.dvestore.com/roland-v-1sdi-hd-video-switcher/
Thanks for sharing. Do you have any videos on use of Roland V-1HD with OBS for live streaming.
sweet setup
+Viranimedia Kenya Thanks!
Great video! Does anyone know if this thing works with the canon 5diii? Canon claims it has clean hdmi out so I would hope so, but want to be sure.
Also, you would go Roland V1-HD, to a recorder (atmos) , to a capture card, to a computer for live stream? Or do you not need the Atmos to live stream. Sorry a bit naive here. Thanks
Hello, thanks for all the information.
I have a question that you may know the answer, does this mixer allows you to vertical size and horizontal size such as the Roland V4 EX, which allows to resize the image vertically or horizontally.
Thanks in advance!
Great video, thanks! Does the unit scale the incoming signal or did you match all 4 of the inputs to one common one? Thanks in advance.
Thanks, Michael. The V-1HD does not scale, so you want to set the format switch to match the incoming signal. You can input either 1080p or 1080i, whether the format switch is set to 1080p or 1080i. All internal processing is progressive. It accepts 59.94 or 50 for frame rates. It may sound like a pain, but actually the only source I had to adjust was the Panasonic GH4. The netbook, Macbook Pro and iPod signals were all happily accepted by the V-1HD without issue. Happy New Year!
Great Video.
Could you please list some of the best recorders that can be used with the V-1HD?
Hi.. can we zoom or upsacle input each hdmi video. Input from my laptop can't show full on screen. Thank you.
Hi sir! can You try to setting the hand-on control in the midle when you switch 2 video. 2 video still in the midle screen? Thanks!
great review! thanks. there is a delay for the audio inputs, but is there a way to set delays for the video? I have had issues with varying delays from different cameras' hdmi outputs.
I have the same question, can anybody answer this?
Thank you so much, DVE Store! I've learned a lot about this mixer. But can you answer my question about this: can this mixer control the sound in the multiple mic? just like.. the sound of one mic getting lowered and another mics is still sounds good and clear? If you answer me, it will help me sooo much! Pardon my english, thanks
Thanks dear, i will do as You say.Kind regards.
Very helpful, thanx. think I gonna buy the thing.
What I missed is a little more on how the effects work. If I understand right it is possible to input audio and manipulate the image with the beat or frequency settings. But how does that work?
And since you seem up to date on extra boxes - any suggestion on an analog (composite) to HD720p converter I could put before the mixer? Thanx a lot
+David Haneke Upconverting composite SD to HD is not often done, but there are some inexpensive options out there, like this one: www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA1KT0FU0184&cm_re=composite_to_hdmi_converter-_-9SIA1KT0FU0184-_-Product. I'm not sure what the quality will look like; particularly against other native HD sources. As far as auto-switching, let me look further into the BPM settings on the V-1HD.
Movie making, we're trying to bring our three or four Nikon cameras that are recording a person/s with a green screen that would be keyed out. What I need is my monitor watching 2 people 50/50 on the screen or 3/4 people 25/25/25/25 on screen. key out the green. Now I need to bring the two or four screens of camera recording from the switcher together and have it recorded into one output. Will it do all these
is it possible to use my laptop to record the output of the Roland video switcher?
It certainly is possible. Does your laptop have Thunderbolt or USB 3?
sadly my laptop is pretty old. about 5 years old. but im willing to upgrade to what ever i need to make this project work. do you have a video about this topic? or please give me a list of what i need. also, would a game card capture device with a micro sd card.
thank you
jason, i basically want to record a 1080p 30 video on a micro sd card and insert that sd card to my cell phone and upload to youtube. please help
Uploading or live streaming directly from your laptop would be easier than transferring the video to your phone. You could use this Magewell capture dongle to get the video from the V-1HD to your laptop. www.dvestore.com/magewell-xi100dusb-hdmi-usb-3-0-capture-dongle-used-446/ Then you need some recording/streaming software. OBS is one option. obsproject.com/
very good video / is the HDMI output Video only or is it Video and audio -
So would you need one each converter ht for each camera
Is it possible to use a splitter to feed one of the HDMI outputs to multiple monitors?
cool demo, i am looking for some way of connecting 4-5 cameras that can stream to something like this. my problem is getting the signal from the cameras to the mixer. the cameras will be miles apart so cabling will not work hence i am looking at the streaming option. what would i need to get the signal from the camera to the v-1hd?
Fiber will go up to 28 miles! What is the use case? Do you require low latency?
awesome video. did you have to delay the audio to sync to the video cameras?
Thanks! I didn't use any audio delay.
Nice one
Hey! I have it to where it crossfades from a to b. When it does, the middle is white, is there a way to make it just blend video to video without it going to white?
Where do you connect the separate mic? Aside from the 4 cameras,
excellent
Thanks for watching, Alvaro!
Great video! Looking forward purchasing it. Just one concern though, can I use the Atomos Ninja 2 only with V-1HD? Because I'm afraid the spec says on Atomos it only accepts 1080 30p.
Did you ever find out? Lol, must have after 4yrs???
Also, he mentions it can accept "frame rates" of 59.94 or 50 BUT I'm thinking that's a froidian slip. Meaning to be frequency either PAL or NTSC I'm thinking.
thank you for your video, i have a question, how you setting for you gh4 because i connect me camera but i dont have signal
Can you do a diagonal split screen with this or set up a transition that will achieve this?
Hi, Pat! There are a number of built-in split screen effects, but they are all horizontal and vertical; no diagonal. No diagonal wipes either, unfortunately.
Is there any additional latency when using a hd camera thru this unit?
The Atem Mini outputs via USB to be picked up as a Virtual Webcam, what about the V-1HD? Thanks!
Thanks for this video. I am hoping that you can tell me if Vidiu Pro can stream to Facebook Live without having to pay for the ShareLink subscription?
Thank you for the video! I have a question, if you decide to use two hdmi output without preview, can you output different images or it must be the same?
Thank you! It seems nice! :)
Hi, Eduard: The V-1HD has two HDMI outputs; a program out and a preview out. The preview out can duplicate the program out or show fullscreen preview of the preset source; or it can show the multi-view of all the sources.
Thank you, great video. Can I use an HDMI to VGA adopter to present using a LCD Projector? Have a 50' Run to projector. Appreciate the recommendations. The location has a ceiling mount LCD with an existing VGA setup.
Thanks, Richard! An HDMI to VGA adapter should work fine to feed the projector.
Great info here, thanks. Q: What is the total latency for the HDMI->SDI->HDMI conversion? Thanks.
Thanks for the great video. Because of it I pretty much followed everything you said. But i have one question I have the v-1hd and a atomos ninja 2. I want to record like you did to the ninja 2 and I tested a blu-ray player to it but it will show up on the roland, but not the ninja. the ninja just shuts down like there is no feed.
The Ninja 2 will not accept 1920x1080 60p (59.94), you have to give it 1920x1080 30p (29.97). Or the problem could be HDCP. If the Blu-Ray is a commercially produced disc, it will be HDCP encrypted. The V-1HD can pass through HDCP content, but all devices in the chain must be HDCP compatible, which the Ninja 2 isn't.
A great video! I wish youd do a "pre-quell" and part 2 and 3!!!
thank you ...!! 😉👍
hi if this switcher work good weth 5d mark 2 and 5d mark 3
Great video! Wondering if you might be able to help me. I want to use this device in order to live stream. I am using OSB and Kaltura (live streaming much like youtube I guess). What HDMI to USB or Thunderbolt device do you recommend? It would be nice to be able to capture to Final Cut Pro as well. Thanks so much for posting this video!
Thanks, Shane! The Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Mini Recorder works well to feed the 'program out' of the V-1HD into your Mac for recording and/or streaming. www.dvestore.com/blackmagic-design-ultrastudio-mini-recorder/
Hi, great video. I'm planing to buy theV-1HD, and it helped me a lot. A question.
At what distance the HDMI cable starts to degrade the signal?
Thanks, David! I've used a 50 foot high speed HDMI cable with success, but I wouldn't go beyond that.
Thank you for this video, very useful. Does the Roland V-1HD Video Switcher take full HDMI in and give it out that is 1080p and 720p. We purchased the Roland V-4EX only to discover that most of the HDMI inputs were 480.
Yes, the V-1HD has three modes, 720p, 1080i and 1080p. It will not do standard definition at all :)
I have an issue with the V-1HD mixer. I have two sony FDR 100 video cameras and two PTZ remote cameras plugged into the mixer. All are se to 1080p output and the Mixer to 1080p input. One of the Sony cameras works well the other a slightly older model and the two new PTZ cameras squish the output and the preview image in the vertical and sometimes has a copy of part of the image below or even above the moving image. What am I doing wrong as I would expect the roland to copy with all these cameras?
Salve ma è possibile fare zoom su un ingresso? Per esempio se su hdmi in da. Pc voglio ritagliare una parte del video è possibile farlo? Grazie
what do the mix and cut options do beside the tfader?
Great video,thanks for this. At 18:20 you show very quickly how to run a white luma key. We were thinking of trying out green screen broadcasting. Would green be better? Does the Roland have an option for green luma key for the effects?
Hi, Mark! When you key out green, it's called a chroma key and when you key out the dark or light parts of an image, it's called a luma key. Yes, you can do chroma keying and luma keying with the V-1HD. Luma keying is generally used to overlay graphics over video. Chroma keying is generally used to replace the background in an image or video.
Do you know if there are any step-by-step instructions that exist on how to use this to overlay graphics? If not, would you be willing to type up a really quick 1-2-3 for this kind of action?
Selecting a Compositing Effect
1. Press the MEMORY button to display the MEMORY menu.
2. Use the UP and DOWN buttons to select EFFECTS A or EFFECTS B.
3. Use the A/B fader to select the compositing effect to assign to the EFFECTS A or B [ON] button.
Compositing Using Luminance Key
1. Follow the procedure in "Selecting a Compositing Effect" to select "WHT-L.KEY" or "BLK-L.KEY."
2. Press the EFFECTS A (or B) [ON] button to turn on the effect (lighted).
3. Press the [A-1] through [A-4] and [B-1] through [B-4] buttons to separately select the background and the picture you want to display in the foreground. The video on the bus at the position where you turned on the effect in step 2 is displayed in the foreground.
4. Turn the [EFFECTS A] and [EFFECTS B] knobs to adjust the amount of effect applied. The [EFFECTS A] knob adjusts the amount of keying for the foreground video. The [EFFECTS B] knob adjusts the degree of edge blur for the foreground video.
5. To turn off an effect, press the EFFECTS A (or B) [ON] button a second time.
Thank you for your informative video. One question, I notice the format switch. Is this only the output format? Do all hdmi inputs have to be the same format? We have a 1080I camera, and we hope we can have this flexibility with a new camera 2 (720p) as a fixed wide shot, and then the hdmi o/p of a laptop for keying.
From my reading of the spec, the format switch setting applies to inputs and output. All inputs must match resolution, so you can't mix 720 & 1080. You would need a 1080(p or i) camera 2, and a 1080(p or i) output from the laptop.
que buen video quisiera saver como sellama el aparato con el que estas grabando en vivo te agradesere mucho tu aporte
Es el Atomos Ninja aunque también hay de otras marcas como "black magic" Te mando la liga aqui: www.dvestore.com/searchresults.html?search_query=ninja+2
Hello, I have the V-1HD but can’t get a signal of it on my computer. Do I need a camera capture card to make this work? Thanks
Nice video. I liked the menu walkthrough.
Would have liked to see what the PIP looks like, size capabilities, etc.
We never got to see the audio input/output on the side that you're using.
The app- it'd be interesting to see a walkthrough of the app and how it makes adjusting audio levels easier than using the video mixer. I didn't see the meters goin when you showed the mixer app, so does it show live audio levels, etc?
The app wasn't finished when I made this video, so I only showed a screenshot. I will definitely be making a PIP tutorial!
+DVeStore, Inc. Excellent! I look forward to that!
This is fantastic! Super helpful. Question: I am having trouble getting a signal from my Roland HD1 to my Atomos Blade (seems like I'm not alone!). I need to mix two signals. One from my Panasonic AC30 and the other is from a laptop. I need to do a live mix with my Roland and record into the Blade (which currently says NO SIGNAL). I see there may be an issue with format/scaling. Can you help? Do I need to upgrade to a newer Atoms?
Hi, Andy: The Blade only supports up to 1080p30, which is probably why it's not 'seeing' the signal from your V-1HD. The AC30 and the laptop are likely putting out 1080p60. You could upgrade to a Ninja Flame, www.dvestore.com/atomos-ninja-flame-4k-hdmi-hdr-recording-monitor/ or you could use a Decimator MD-HX to downconvert the Roland output. www.dvestore.com/decimator-md-hx-miniature-hdmi-sdi-cross-converter-with-scaling-frame-rate-conversion/ What is the final destination for your video?
DVeStore, Inc. Thank you! The final product will be the capture only (not live stream) onto an Atomos device. From there I may do some light editing (iMovie) and am hoping that the Flame will allow me some flexibility of the final file type so that I can edit. Sounds like it’s an either/or thing re Flame and Decimator, true?
Great video. My question. When you do a fade to black using the Roland V-1HD can it be configured to fade audio as well? Thanks.
Yes!
Hi
we have installed a Roland V-1HD in our Church
We have 3 No. PTZ cameras and laptop inputs and out to 5 No. Monitors in the Church
However we have quite a bit of latency between live movement and viewed movement on our monitors
Any suggestions as to what we can do to minimize the latency?
Hello Sir. We purchased this device( Roalnd V1HD plus Video Switcher) 1 year ago and using it as a stand alone switcher. In order for it to be functional we needed a video capture card. My question is, if we switch the current device Roland V1HD to a Roland V1HD with encoder, will i still need a capture card. Blessings to you
Can this do two 16X9 images side by side or does it crop it to have the image?
I just flew with our V-1HD Switcher tightly packed in a road box. When I set it up to do PIP with 2 inputs, No matter what input I go to in full screen the left half of the screen is pixelated and off orientation a bit and the right half of the screen is perfectly fine. It happens with both inputs and not in separate recordings of those sources. Do you think our V-1HD was damaged by baggage handlers or TSA inspectors. I'd love to get your POV on this. Other than this issue, the V-1HD has been great for our output. Thanks
Hi, great video! Is there an option to come up from black/fade to black?
Thanks, Tom! Yes. On the upper left of the panel is an output fade knob. You can fade from or to black or white.
Hey Jason. Thanks for the great video. Very informative!
I'm trying to figure out a way to feed my Pro Tools mix through a pair of mono outputs from the back of my Digi 003 Rack+ and then loop it back into some free digital streaming software on my MacBook Pro (OBS) without having to use the noisy Line In preamp that's built into my MacBook.
I'm wondering if the V-1HD has the ability to send the source audio inputs through the USB connection my MacBook or if that USB connector on the back of the V-1HD is specifically for communication between the hardware and the software?
I hope I was clear and I look forward to your reply!
Thanks, Barry! Unfortunately, the USB connector is only for software control. You may want to use a USB audio interface like the Focusrite Scarlett www.dvestore.com/audio/recording-devices/focusrite-scarlett-2i2-usb-portable-audio-interface/
Thanks for the reply! Does the HDMI Output travel the audio along with the video? If so, I could adapt with a product like the Blackmagic UltraStudio Mini Recorder and go Thunderbolt into my MacBook?
Hi... this roland v-1hd can run on 720 50p ?
How well do this work using 4k cameras? if i use 4 cameras do i have to edit in post production using all 4 memory cards or do this device record on to one memory card for one step post production?
Hi there, would I be able to hookup an iPad to the switcher with 2 camera view points for live shows on Facebook? Or will I need to run thru an encoded streaming device?
Since this video is 5 years old is there a newer model? This would have been ideal if it had a automatic switching mode between the 4 sources. Thanks for the education.
I have the V-h1 and magewell 32060 usb hdmi. I had it set up, and its been a while, I started getting millions of views on a vid, so might as well step it up. Do you have a diagram for capturing from the desktop into my switcher using the magewell?
