Roland V-160HD Streaming Video Switcher

Model: VIRO16

Product Highlights:

The New Standard in Hybrid Event Switching

Filled with pro features to take on any modern production, the V-160HD sets a new standard in hybrid event switching. Connect with live audiences in Full HD with comprehensive SDI and HDMI I/O and simultaneously stream to any popular web platform via USB-C. There’s also an eight-layer video effects engine, a 40-channel digital audio mixer, and integrated PTZ camera control, plus next-generation cue management and live show automation features that make tough production tasks simple. And everything’s all wrapped up in a portable design with a broadcast-style interface that’s easily handled by a single operator.

The V-160HD Streaming Video Switcher is the first hybrid event solution that empowers single operators to seamlessly produce event presentations for in-person and online attendees. Hybrid events require custom content displays with the ability to tailor the experience to each audience.

The V-160HD allows in-person audience members to see a presentation on in-room displays, while online attendees view the presenter and their content layered on the screen simultaneously. Meanwhile, traditional automation tools—like presets, macros, and robotic PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) camera control are unified with a sequencer—allowing operators to multi-task with confidence, reducing missed cues, poor audio, or delayed video switching issues.

Standout Features: –

Ability to mix eight HDMI and eight SDI sources in full HD, working with everything from cameras, computers, tablets, smartphones to gaming consoles and even legacy 4:3 devices. –
Record up to 1000 steps in the sequencer, each of which can include presets, macros, video effect layers, audio mixing, and PTZ cameras. Simply set up your cues ahead of time in the sequence list and trigger them in order using the Next button on the panel. –
Switch inputs, configure settings, and recall presets remotely with wireless Bluetooth connectivity and an iPad app. – Engage your audience with unique picture in picture for up to four people. –
Directly control a range of compatible robotic PTZ cameras. Mix and match various brands and operate up to 16 PTZ cameras simultaneously.
