| Content | PLUG-AND-PLAY FOR FLAWLESS RECORDINGS AND LIVESTREAMS
For online content creators, musicians, and gamers to businesses, schools, and houses of worship, livestreaming is an essential medium for communicating with people around the world. With the UVC-01, it’s never been easier to add high-quality livestreaming capabilities to your Roland V-series video switcher or favorite HDMI-equipped camera or camcorder.
Just connect to the UVC-01 via HDMI, plug into your computer’s USB 3.0 port, and start streaming to Facebook Live, YouTube, and other popular platforms. Offering plug-and-play operation in a rugged, pocket-size design, the UVC-01 is ready for action everywhere you go.
Features
- High-quality HDMI to USB 3.0 video encoder
- Plug-and-play USB webcam operation for Mac and Windows computers
- Seamlessly works with all Roland V-series switchers with an HDMI output
- Also works with most HDMI-equipped cameras and camcorders
- Uncompressed 1080p HD at 60 FPS for engaging livestreams
- Dedicated analog audio line input for live music versatility
- Powered via USB
Quality You Can Count On
Backed by more than two decades of professional A/V product development, Roland’s UVC-01 drives your livestream with uncompressed 1080p HD image quality, ultra-smooth 60 FPS motion, and low-latency encoding. And thanks to its hardware-based design, it just works every time you need it—efficiently, consistently, and reliably.
Plug In and Stream
Once connected, the UVC-01 automatically shows up as a source in your streaming software, with no drivers or fussy setup required. Like a dedicated webcam, it encodes HDMI to USB video class and USB audio class formats, letting you instantly stream at superspeed USB 3.0 with any service, platform, or application that accepts a webcam as its A/V source.
A Sound Solution
With the UVC-01, stereo audio is embedded in the HDMI feed along with video. And thanks to the dedicated audio input, it’s possible to blend a secondary sound source as well. For example, you can play bumper music from your smartphone, or use Roland’s GO-MIXER Pro to combine a mic and instruments for impactful musical performances.
Reach More People
By delivering your message to in-person and online audiences at the same time, you can achieve a wider reach with minimal extra effort. Using a Roland professional video switcher in tandem with a UVC-01, it’s simple to create these hybrid productions. Just connect the UVC-01 to the second output of your switcher and simultaneously broadcast live action to your preferred streaming platform.
Capture and Distribute
In some situations, you may want to record a presentation ahead of time and distribute it online after the fact. With the free Roland Live Recorder (Windows) and Video Capture for VR (Mac) applications, you can capture high-quality video and audio through the UVC-01 in real time, ready for upload to video sharing sites.

| If you’re a content creator seeking maximum engagement, livestreaming outperforms uploaded video by a significant margin; audiences are larger, watch for longer and post more comments. Roland’s VR-1HD lets you broadcast dynamic multi-camera livestreams, complete with amazing picture and sound that easily outshines ‘standard’ livestreams from a mobile phone or static webcam. Whether you’re a creator, gamer, commentator or presenter, it’s the easy way to livestream with high production standards. And since you’re going to get more comments, ensure they’re good ones with the VR-1HD.
Real engagement in real time
If you’re a content creator seeking maximum engagement, livestreaming outperforms uploaded video by a significant margin; audiences are larger, watch for longer and post more comments. Roland’s VR-1HD lets you broadcast dynamic multi-camera livestreams, complete with amazing picture and sound that easily outshines ‘standard’ livestreams from a mobile phone or static webcam. Whether you’re a creator, gamer, commentator or presenter, it’s the easy way to livestream with high production standards. And since you’re going to get more comments, ensure they’re good ones with the VR-1HD.
Your ‘plug and play’ broadcast studio
The VR-1HD has three “worry-free” HDMI inputs, and each one accepts a variety of HD and computer-based video resolutions. This lets you connect, switch and stream different sources including cameras, presentations, gameplay and even smartphones and tablets without having to think about it. The audio from these sources can be blended with the two studio-quality XLR microphone inputs and dedicated line input. Best of all, as the VR-1HD is designed for live broadcasting, its dedicated controls and top-mounted mic input (with gooseneck mic) let you go hands-free and headset-free while livestreaming.
Switch to superior livestreams
When preparing a video for uploading, your editing software can add some impressive layering options, including professional transitions that make ‘live-switched’ videos look boring by comparison. The VR-1HD has built-in Scene Switching to instantly jump between scenes that contain preset arrangements of layered sources, displayed within customizable inset windows.
Set-up the scenes in advance and recall them via the five scene preset buttons, to make your livestreaming way more interesting.
Video director inside
When you’re presenting a livestreamed vlog or nailing a live music performance, you’d normally need another person to help switch cameras. The VR-1HD lets you go it alone with three Auto Switching modes that take the strain once the broadcast begins;
Video Follows Audio
Video Follows Audio
The VR-1HD switches cameras based on who’s speaking into their microphone. If both people talk at once, or if no one is speaking, the VR-1HD can switch to a wide shot showing both presenters.
Beat Sync Switching
Start playing music and the VR-1HD will switch to different camera inputs based on your playing tempo or the music in your DJ performance – letting you act as your own VJ.
Auto Scan
For extended live streams with no operator, set the VR-1HD to switch between sources in a pre-defined order, or randomly, at your chosen rate of time.
Audio engineer inside too
Beat Sync Switching
Put audio on auto-pilot and relax, thanks to the VR-1HD’s Auto Mixing function. Just like having a sound engineer, you can ensure that different audio inputs aren’t competing, while also checking that the sound remains balanced. You can even set certain inputs to take priority so when the host starts to speak, the other audio levels are automatically reduced. Audio from your input sources can automatically change when you switch video sources, by engaging the Audio Follows Video function – one less thing to worry about during your livestream.
Sound like your best self or not yourself
Nobody talks about good sound when watching a live stream but they sure notice when its bad. Pros use sound “equalizers” to balance the highs and lows of the audio, “gates” to keep open mics quiet unless someone is speaking and “compressors” to balance out changes in volume when speaking or singing. These are all in the VR-1HD to make sure everyone sounds their best on air along with reverb if someone is inspired to sing and needs a little ambience.
Radically transform your voice
Radically transform your voice
Roland makes the legendary VT series of Voice Transformers, used by creators, gamers and singers to radically change their voice in real-time. This technology means that a male can sound like a female, a female can sound like a male, and anyone can sound like a robot, a monster or an alien. Derived from Roland’s VT series, the VR-1HD’s Voice Changer effect can be applied to the mic inputs, and each input even has its own Voice Changer settings, so people can sound like someone else — or something else — entirely.
Sounds and stingers on-demand
Some of the greatest radio and video personalities incorporate a signature soundtrack and sound effects, known as stingers, that become part of their brand and image. The VR-1HD lets you add your own custom sound effects via USB memory, including jingles or even a theme song, and trigger them instantly via the four Audio Effects buttons on the VR-1HD’s top panel.
Connect to your computer, connect to your audience
The VR-1HD uses the same connection technology as webcams, so just hook up to your computer via USB 3.0 and fire up the live casting or recording software. Then jump straight into a professionally produced, Full HD broadcast on your favorite platform, including Twitch, YouTube or Facebook Live.
RCS
The VR-1HD RCS software is designed to control the VR-1HD using a computer. By connecting the VR-1HD to your computer via USB, you will be able to copy settings (backup) or update the system software of the VR-1HD in addition to remote controlling the unit from your computer. | Welcome to Wireless Livestreaming
