The Roland V-8HD is built for live event producers, broadcast teams, corporate presentations, houses of worship and mobile crews who demand serious switching power in a compact package. With eight HDMI inputs and three HDMI outputs, it accepts a wide range of camera, computer, tablet or console sources and distributes the program, preview and aux feeds simultaneously for different destinations.
Its full-HD workflow supports mixed frame rates and color spaces across sources and it features built-in scalers on two HDMI inputs so that less-standard sources such as tablets, legacy computers or non-HD formats can be brought into the workflow without external converters. This flexibility means you can connect whatever you have and still deliver a consistent 1080p output.
On the effects and composition side the V-8HD provides five layers of visual processing including picture-in-picture, chroma and luminance keying, still-image recall and logos. Save your preferred looks as memory presets so live switching becomes more intuitive and repeatable. Monitoring is built in via the 4.3-inch colour multi-viewer screen showing all eight inputs, program and preview, as well as audio levels or recording status.
The built-in 18-channel digital audio mixer covers embedded HDMI audio plus stereo RCA analog input and provides effects such as de-esser, compressor, wind noise reduction and sync delay on each channel. Add to that automated switching modes (input scan, memory scan, BPM sync), remote recorder trigger via HDMI and remote control via iPad or desktop apps and you have a full-featured live switcher that remains portable and efficient.
Designed for one-person operation or small crews, the Roland V-8HD combines professional I/O, flexible workflow and effects with portability and ease of use. Whether you are streaming a multi-camera event, delivering a corporate broadcast, mixing gaming feeds for esports or presenting in a worship environment, this switcher delivers the features you need without over-complicating the setup.
