This model is also a product that is only in Roland.Video input is 4 input to HDMI instead of SDI.The voice can be adjusted directly by putting the mixer on the panel firmly.In the case of audio, it is easier for users to understand and lead to security.The mixer part occupies more than half of the panel, but is in total A4 size.With this size, for example, it can be installed on a table in the conference room without difficulty.I am grateful that I do not have to prepare an audio mixer separately, and that it is functionally sufficient.
The switcher is important for the interface, but the switch for video switching is a large self -light switch that is used in top business equipment, and uses a good type of pressed feeling.It is a touch type monitor that is not on the VR-1HD, which is convenient to check the 4-division video here, touch it directly, switch the video, and set various various.Compared to the upper machine, there are some parts that are smaller and finer, but it is better to use it as an operation panel by putting out a 4 -division screen in the preview out and outlecting a program out from HDMI OUT.。For example, you can move the PINP position to your favorite position while touching your finger.

▲ Many CH can be used if you include the sound of HDMI, but level management is difficult.Auto mixing is a function to automatically adjust the volume input.Here, CH1-3 is turned on.It is helpful when you do not know the sound.
▲ Each audio CH can set a detailed item by pressing the set up button.This work is very easy to understand because there is an LCD monitor.
▲ It is common for the video to shift."Delay" to delay the sound can also be set in each CH.The work of selecting with a touch panel and turning the dial.There are many other items that can be set, such as reverb, EQ, and comp.
