Video effects and graphics bring polish and excitement to productions. The VR-6HD's effects engine features eight composition layers that can be assigned to the Program, Sub-Program, and Aux outs, so you'll always keep audiences engaged with visually appealing content. With up to four picture-in-picture windows and two downstream key layers with transparent PNG and external key support, you can manage the creative needs of any client.

 Assignable Video Outputs

The VR-6HD puts a high-end video matrix at your fingers with three HDMI outputs, a USB-C streaming output, and an ethernet streaming output. Feed program displays, auxiliary monitors, multiview producer displays, and online audiences at once, complete with a clean output leftover for recording the presentation to an SDXC card. 

The VR-6HD delivers world-class audio quality with 28 simultaneous channels and Roland's sound mixing features. Comprehensive EQ and dynamics processing is provided on every channel, complete with convenient preset libraries for achieving pro results instantly. Powerful problem-solving tools are also on hand, including audio sync alignment, de-essing, noise suppression, and more. It's even possible to play back stored audio during streams with quick touches on the panel.

The VR-6HD offers professional analog audio connectivity with six balanced XLR/TRS combination jacks, high-quality mic preamps, and phantom power. Stereo RCA inputs are available for audio players, electronic instruments, and other line-level devices, and you can mix the embedded digital audio from sources connected to the HDMI and USB inputs. And with onboard Bluetooth, it's easy to stream wireless audio from any mobile device.

Set up direct control for your most important sound feeds with eight assignable faders. And when you have multiple presenters to deal with, engage Auto Mixing to lighten your load and ensure that the mix between microphones remains balanced. You can set specific inputs to take priority when someone starts to speak, and other audio levels are automatically reduced as needed.

A Mix for Each Audience

Two auxiliary audio buses let you set up unique mixes for a variety of applications. For example, you can feed a monitor system for stage performers while live streaming a specialised mix that's independent of the in-person program. Versatile routing allows you to freely assign the mix and aux buses to the two stereo XLR outputs, RCA stereo output, USB and stream/record outputs, and HDMI outputs.

Shape Your Sound

The VR-6HD combines the full power of the latest digital audio consoles with expansive Roland effects. EQ and dynamics processing is provided for every input and output, and high-quality reverb is available for music applications and special effects. You also get specialised tools to quickly handle audio issues, like automatic antifeedback for stage mics, and adaptive noise reduction to suppress background noise and hum.

Audio on Demand

With the VR-6HD's Audio Player section and six assignable pads, it's simple to enhance events with custom sounds. With a quick press, you can trigger sound effects, event announcements, countdowns for e-sports, or theme songs when presenters take the stage.

The VR-6HD advanced technology makes livestreaming to the most popular platforms smooth and worry-free. With direct streaming over ethernet, computer streaming over USB, and Adaptive Bitrate support, you can deliver high-quality presentations to any audience. And with simultaneous SDXC recording, it's easy to capture presentations for archiving and distribution.

USB-C Streaming up to 60 fps

Stream to any audience in Full HD to a computer via USB. The USB-C connection offers the same plug-and-play technology as webcams, so you can begin streaming immediately with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, or any platform that can use a webcam as its source.

Take Full Control of Your Productions

Fast Recall of Complex Compositions

Storing and recalling custom looks can be accomplished with just a few button presses. The 32 scene memories and advanced effects engine work together to provide seamless changes, including synchronising the transition of all composition layers at the program output. The 100 macros go even deeper, allowing you to build and execute complex action lists that include switching, DSK on/off, audio mixing adjustments, PTZ camera movements, and much more.

Automated Switching and Mixing

 When there are many stage presenters, you need to follow the action and switch audio and video together. The automated video switching and audio mixing features in the VR-6HD make this complicated task simple, greatly easing your workload and creating a smooth experience for the audience.

Robotic PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras eliminate the need for multiple operators, provide enhanced broadcast-quality coverage, and can be placed in discreet locations thanks to their small size. The VR-6HD features integrated support for select Canon, JVC, Panasonic, Sony, PTZOptics, Avonic, and VISCA-compatible PTZ LAN cameras. Mix and match different brands as you like, and operate up to six PTZ cameras simultaneously.

The VR-6HD supports extended workflows with dedicated software apps and a variety of remote devices.

• Connect footswitches or expression pedals to execute over 100 different switcher commands.  
• Trigger start/stop on Atomos recorders over HDMI. 
• Set up a tally light with Roland’s Smart Tally or the rear-panel hardware connector. 
• Seamlessly integrate with system installations via the RS-232 and TALLY/GPIO D-sub connectors.
