Roland Professional A\/V announces the\u00a0V-1-4K<\/a>, a compact 4K 60p video switcher that provides an easy transition to 4K workflows in today\u2019s production environments. In addition, Graphics Presenter Version 3.0 software now offers 4K operation, and the VenuSet control panel software has been updated to support the V-1-4K.<\/p>\n \u00a0V-1-4K: Compact 4K and HDR Video\u00a0Switcher\u00a0for Modern Production Needs Building on the proven workflow of Roland\u2019s V-1 series, the V-1-4K offers 4K 60p and HDR processing in a highly compact footprint. The all-in-one hardware design includes:<\/p>\n Five HDMI 2.0 inputs and six total outputs, including HDMI, USB, and multi-view. This impressive feature set enables engineers and operators to quickly put the V-1-4K system into service for in-person events, hybrid livestreams, multi-camera studio productions, corporate meetings, worship services, and classroom applications.<\/p>\n \u00a0The V-1-4K also includes a Region of Interest (ROI) mode that allows users to crop up to four unique virtual shots from a single 4K camera source. This enables flexible single-camera production setups for panel discussions, classrooms, training spaces, and fixed installations where adding more hardware may be impractical or cost-prohibitive.<\/p>\n \ufeff<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Graphics Presenter Version 3.0: Support for 4K Workflows VenuSet Version 1.2: Simplified, Customizable Control for Select Roland Video Products Availability & Pricing*

Roland\u2019s companion\u00a0Graphics Presenter<\/a>\u00a0software, widely used for real-time titles, motion graphics, lower thirds, and visual overlays, has been updated to Version 3.0 with full 4K rendering and output. When paired with the V-1-4K, operators can create polished, broadcast-style visuals without requiring a dedicated graphics workstation.<\/p>\n
VenuSet<\/a>\u00a0Version 1.2 (iPadOS, macOS, and Windows) works with the V-1-4K and other supported Roland video products, allowing users and system integrators to create customizable control interfaces tailored to specific events or operator skill levels. This approach is ideal for corporate, education, and worship environments where non-technical staff may be asked to manage A\/V systems. By enabling operators to build minimal, purpose-driven layouts, VenuSet reduces barriers to high-quality video switching and ensures consistent, reliable operation.<\/p>\n
The Roland V-1-4K Video Switcher will be available from June for $1,899.99 (USA).\u00a0<\/p>\n
