| Content | Step Up Your Livestreams
Ditch the webcam and step up your livestreams with the Roland V-02HD MK II Streaming Video Mixer. Compact, affordable, and simple to use, this desktop device allows you to connect and switch two high-quality HDMI cameras and send them directly to your favorite streaming platform over USB-C. You can also mix in audio sources via dedicated inputs and HDMI, apply video effects and transitions, and more. With the V-02HD MK II, you have the interface you need to bring higher production values to your live video productions.
Simply Simple
The V-02HD MK II is the world’s easiest two-camera livestreaming solution. With its intuitive layout, large controls, and T-bar fader, it’s incredibly simple to operate, even if you have no broadcasting experience.
Go live in three quick steps:
- Plug in up to two sources via HDMI, including cameras, computers, mobile devices, and gaming consoles.
- Connect the USB-C output to your computer.
- Launch your streaming software and select the V-02HD MK II as the camera source.
Stream with Every Platform
The V-02HD MK II connects to the streaming computer you already own and the audience you already have. It’s instantly recognized as a camera source when you plug in via USB, so it’s ready to go for Facebook, YouTube, Twitch, and Zoom. It also integrates seamlessly with OBS Studio, Streamlabs OBS, StreamYard, and Restream for more advanced workflows. High-quality streaming up to 1080p/60 FPS is supported, and it’s possible to send two additional feeds to external HDMI devices via the Program Out and Preview Out if needed.
A Stress-Free Setup
When you use the V-02HD MK II, everything just works. Plug in your two HDMI sources and let Roland’s advanced tech handle all the details, and say goodbye to computer driver conflicts, crashes, and other reliability issues that come with multiple USB webcams and HDMI-to-USB encoder adaptors.
HDMI Cameras for the Win
From talk shows and live demonstrations to artistic performances and beyond, cameras that support HDMI output will elevate the image quality in your streams and drive more audience engagement. They have much better lenses than any webcam and often have zoom capability to frame your perfect shot. You can connect a variety of different camera types to the V-02HD MK II. Whichever solution you choose, make sure it supports a clean HDMI output that’s free of any overlayed information.
- Good—A smartphone or tablet with an HDMI adaptor offers a good option that’s compact and easy to set up anywhere.
- Better—A point-and-shoot camera, action camera, or video camcorder with features like zoom and deeper exposure and focus control will take things even further.
- Best—A DSLR or mirrorless camera is the ultimate solution, offering the best image quality for a cinematic look, interchangeable lenses, and improved performance in low-light conditions.
Upgrade Your Sound Too
The V-02HD MK II also includes a 10-channel digital audio mixer with Roland’s legendary sound quality. There are two audio inputs with 3.5 mm jacks, and each supports a microphone—including lavalier mics that require plug-in power—or stereo audio from a smartphone, mixer, or other device. Embedded stereo audio from your HDMI sources can be mixed in as well, including microphones connected to your cameras.
Switch with Your Feet
If you give demonstrations or perform in your livestreams, your hands are busy with that task. The V-02HD MK II supports control with up to two optional BOSS footswitches, allowing you to direct your stream without interrupting your presentation. Stomp on a footswitch to switch camera angles, cut to a static image, transition scene layouts, fade picture-in-picture windows, and more.
Go Deeper with Advanced Pro A/V Features
Out of the box, the V-02HD MK II gives you the dedicated controls you need to switch cameras and adjust video and audio sources when you go live. But if you want to dive deeper, there’s a world of advanced features and custom assignments to explore. Connecting an HDMI monitor to the Preview Out provides a display for adjusting a vast range of functions from the V-02HD MK II panel. And with our remote control apps for iPad, macOS, and Windows,* you can operate the V-02HD MK II via an intuitive graphical interface.
*Remote control software for macOS and Windows will be available in late 2021.
More Audio Control
Access full mixing functions for all audio sources, add studio polish with compressor, EQ, and reverb, and have fun with formant shifting and robot sounds with the unique voice changer effect. It’s also possible to independently delay the audio inputs and outputs—including the headphones output—if you have any synchronization issues with your cameras.
Visual Effects and Scenes
Adding video effects and creating scenes has become easier with software, but they put a big burden on your computer. The V-02HD MK II provides a dedicated hardware solution that lightens that load. Via the preview monitor and apps, you can set up picture-in-picture windows, create titles and lower thirds, composite scenes, and much more.
Footswitch Assignment
If you’ve added footswitches to your system, you can set custom functions for them in the preview monitor and remote apps.
Wireless Camera Expansion with the AeroCaster Switcher
The purchase of a V-02HD MK II provides free access to Roland’s AeroCaster Switcher for iPad, a powerful solution to cleanly expand your camera setup without the hassle of extra cables. With this unique app, you can wirelessly connect and switch up to five smartphone or tablet cameras, then output a combined program feed to the V-02HD MK II or another supported Roland switcher with HDMI input.
V-02HD MK II iPad Remote App
The dedicated V-02HD MK II Remote app turns an iPad into an efficient touch interface for the V-02HD MK II. Run essential switching functions, mix audio with virtual faders, change settings and effect parameters quickly, and create up to eight custom scenes for seamless setup changes.
V-02HD MK II RCS for macOS and Windows
With the V-02HD MK II RCS application for macOS and Windows,* you can control nearly all V-02HD MK II functions remotely from your computer via USB. V-02HD MK II RCS can run at the same time as your streaming software, allowing you to direct the entire production from your computer screen.
*V-02HD MK II RCS will be available in late 2021.

Inputs 1 to 3 of the V-1SDI support 1080p/1080i/720p video resolutions with Input 4’s scaler supporting a wider range of video and VESA resolutions. Both progressive and interlace signals can be input allowing for both 1080i and 1080p signals to be used at the same time. HDCP is supported* for input of copy protected content from devices such as Blu-ray disc players.
*Video is only output from HDMI when HDCP is enabled. SDI outputs are disabled when HDCP is enabled.
OUTPUTS
The V-1SDI has two 3G SDI Outputs and one HDMI output. SDI PVW and MULTI-VIEW outputs are assignable from Program, Multi-view Preview or Full Frame Preview for flexibility in different applications where output display devices support either SDI or HDMI inputs.
QUAD INPUT MULTI-VIEWER
The four-way multi-view preview screen shows all four input sources on a single display for confident monitoring. A red border shows the video currently being output and a green one indicates the video to be output next. It also includes audio metering for all input sources and the main output.
COMPOSITION EFFECTS
The V-1SDI includes DSK (Downstream Keying), Picture-in-Picture (PinP), Split and Quad composting effects ideal for creating news style broadcasts and corporate presentation content.

The V-1SDI can mix 5 stereo audio inputs from the SDI or HDMI ports, the stereo line level input and a mic level input.
Every audio input is equipped with a delay function* to synchronize the video and the audio.
Audio follow function enables the audio to transition along with the video.
The final audio mix is both embedded in the SDI and HDMI output along with the video signal and is also output to the stereo audio output jacks for sending the audio mix to a PA system or recording it on an external device.
*The maximum delay time is 500ms.
REMOTE CONTROL
Remote control is possible with the V-1SDI RCS dedicated computer software for Mac and PC connected via a USB cable.
The application offers a detailed view of the connected V-1SDI and can be used to switch video, mix audio or change settings.
