The Roland VR-50HD MK II is a completely self-contained AV solution, integrating 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.

Assignable, worry-free video inputs allow the use of any combination of four SDI and HDMI sources for countless configurations and applications. The new input assignment buttons on the VR-50HD MK II make it easy to use all inputs on the switcher with on-the-fly assignment of inputs to crosspoints on the switcher. The unit’s versatile I/O capability, also including RGB/Component and Composite inputs, accommodates professional cameras, computers, presenters’ mobile devices and more.

The large built-in touch screen multi-view monitor allows concurrent viewing Preview and Program, of the four inputs assigned to crosspoints, and of four still images (up to four still images can be loaded from USB to internal storage for immediate access). Keyed video can be placed on picture-in-picture compositions. A still image can be placed on top of the four layers available for composition and effects can be switched on and off at will.

As live streams, HD recording, and presenter confidence monitoring often have separate visual needs from the main program output, the VR-50HD MK II has a dedicated AUX output available for sending alternate content without effecting the main PGM output. The source for the AUX output can be switched by means of dedicated AUX delegation buttons

Professional quality audio mixes for events and live web streaming, including situations where having a dedicated audio engineer is not feasible, is facilitated by the VR-50HD MK II’s new intuitive interface with on-the-fly Auto Mixing of levels and built-in Anti-Feedback. Settings allow certain audio inputs to take priority so that when a presenter speaks, the other audio levels automatically reduce. Audio from input sources can automatically change when you switch video sources with an “Audio Follows Video” operational mode, while a “Video Follows Audio” mode can switch cameras based on who’s speaking into an assigned microphone. The VR-50HD MK II provides a variety of standard audio inputs including XLR/ TRS combo jacks with 48 VDC phantom power, an RCA stereo pair, or de-embedded audio from 3G/HD/SD-SDI and HDMI inputs.

Robotic Pan/ Tilt/ Zoom (PTZ) cameras can eliminate the need for dedicated camera operators while still providing studio-grade broadcast quality. During production, PTZ cameras can be placed in discreet locations thanks to their small size. The VR-50HD MKII can directly control select JVC & Panasonic PTZ LAN cameras, without the need for a dedicated PTZ camera controller or operator. Up to six compatible PTZ cameras can be controlled via a single LAN port.

To share events and maximize global reach, the VR-50HD MK II uses the same USB connection technology as webcams. Web-based streaming simply requires connecting the USB 3.0 I/O to a computer or hardware streaming interface; there is no software to download, drivers to install, updates to manage, or restart required. Roland’s free companion VR Capture software, available for Mac or Windows OS, accommodates recording to “web ready” Full HD AV files.
