All-in-one AV for professional production. The Roland VR-6HD direct-streaming AV mixer is designed for diverse livestreaming and event needs. It combines a video switcher, audio mixer, USB streaming encoder, recorder and PTZ camera control in one unit, simplifying equipment and reducing setup, operation and teardown time. It excels in single-operator or small-team productions requiring high-quality content. Its intuitive control panel is accessible to less experienced users while offering flexibility for demanding professional work.
Versatile video inputs and advanced production tools: the VR-6HD provides six HDMI inputs, each with a built-in frame-rate converter and scaler. Connect PCs, cameras, smartphones and tablets with different output formats directly, without converters, and switch seamlessly. Its compositing tools allow up to two picture-in-picture (PinP) windows and a downstream keyer (DSK) for titles to be used together. Overlay a presenter on a presentation or add information in an L-shaped layout to create engaging, easy-to-follow video. These functions are particularly useful for webinars, product launches and online classes, where clear communication matters.
Uncompromising professional audio performance. The VR-6HD offers professional audio as well as video. Its 28-channel digital audio mixer freely combines sources including HDMI, microphones and line inputs. XLR/TRS combo inputs include high-quality microphone preamps and phantom power for direct connection of condenser microphones. Roland's established audio-processing technology provides channel effects such as EQ, compressors and de-essers. Intelligent tools include anti-feedback to suppress howling and automatic mixing to adjust speakers' levels when several microphones are used. These functions help prevent audio problems, reduce operator workload and deliver clear, intelligible, professional-quality sound.
Easy streaming and recording with powerful automation. Connect the VR-6HD to a PC or Mac via USB-C and it is recognized as a webcam, making it easy to stream using OBS Studio, Zoom, Teams, YouTube Live and other major platforms. No special driver is required. An SDXC card slot is included for recording program (PGM) and individual input (ISO) video separately (planned for a future update). Workflow automation is another key feature: store and display up to 100 still images, record sequences of operations as one-touch macros, and run macros in order with the sequencer. Automating complex scene changes and caption display lets operators focus on creative work.
PTZ camera control reduces staffing and enables flexible systems. Via LAN, the VR-6HD centrally controls up to six Canon, JVC, Panasonic, Sony or VISCA-compatible PTZ cameras. Joysticks and knobs provide intuitive control, while angle and zoom presets can be recalled at a touch. A single operator can handle switching and camera work without separate camera operators, reducing staffing and costs. These capabilities in a compact unit offer a powerful solution to modern content-production challenges.
For corporate and educational AV/IT teams: intended for customers planning livestreamed town halls, product launches, training and shareholder meetings, or online and hybrid classes at universities and vocational schools. Even without dedicated video and audio operators, the VR-6HD’s intuitive interface and automation enable high-quality production. Easily switch between computer screens, document cameras and presenter video, then add titles and logos for clear, engaging streams. A small team can handle setup through streaming, making it suitable for organizations seeking in-house production while controlling costs.
For streaming professionals and event production companies. Designed for professionals streaming small to medium live events, webinars and music performances, where high quality must be delivered within limited budgets and staffing. The VR-6HD combines six HDMI inputs, professional audio mixing, PTZ camera control and macro/sequencer automation in a compact unit that is easy to transport and set up. It enables complex production with one operator and significantly improves workflow efficiency. Stable operation and the trusted Roland brand are also important in professional environments.
Streaming teams at churches, temples and other religious venues. The VR-6HD is intended for organizations sharing worship, memorial services and other events online with their communities. These tasks are often handled by volunteers or staff with other responsibilities rather than dedicated technicians. Simple operation without complex setup is combined with multi-camera switching and capable audio mixing to deliver choir and speaker audio clearly. Auto mixing adjusts the balance of multiple microphones without requiring specialist audio knowledge, helping online participants share the atmosphere and sense of community.
Hybrid events and webinars. Six HDMI inputs connect presenter cameras, presentation PCs and wide venue cameras. PinP overlays the presenter on slides, while DSK displays questions as captions, helping remote participants follow the content. The professional audio mixer clearly combines venue sound and remote questions for a smooth viewing experience at events that bring together in-person and online audiences.
Online classes and educational production: ideal for streaming and recording university lectures, tutoring classes and corporate training. Switch between the instructor, PC teaching materials and documents shown by a document camera at the touch of a button. The sequencer can pre-program video and title changes to match the lesson, allowing an instructor to run it smoothly alone. Direct recording to an SDXC card also makes it easy to reuse lessons as on-demand content.
Music and performance streaming. Suitable for streaming music from small live venues or studios. Multiple cameras capture performers from different angles, and switching with the music creates dynamic visuals. The 28-channel digital mixer and high-quality effects allow fine adjustment of instruments and vocals for powerful live sound. A footswitch also lets performers switch video with their feet.
Corporate investor relations and product launches. Use the VR-6HD for shareholder meetings, financial briefings and new product announcements. Smoothly switch between executives and presentation materials and add captions for key information. Auto mixing is especially useful for panel discussions with multiple executives, automatically raising the active speaker's microphone while maintaining clear audio. Stable USB-C streaming and simultaneous SDXC recording support reliable communication and record keeping.
Council broadcasts and esports commentary. The VR-6HD suits productions with multiple speakers or game screens. PTZ control lets one operator follow council members or switch between players' expressions and game footage. Macros trigger complex actions, such as displaying a speaker's name, at one touch. Compositing tools also overlay commentators on the game screen.
Space-saving, labor-saving all-in-one design: the VR-6HD combines a video switcher, 28-channel digital audio mixer, USB streaming encoder, recorder and PTZ camera controller in one unit. This reduces the need to connect and configure multiple devices and significantly shortens setup time. All operations can be handled from one console, simplifying one-person operation and helping reduce staffing costs and improve team efficiency. The compact chassis is easy to transport and lets you establish a high-quality streaming setup at different venues.
Professional-quality audio. Despite being a video device, it incorporates Roland's extensive professional audio technology. Alongside six XLR/TRS combo inputs with quality microphone preamps, the 28-channel mixer handles sources such as HDMI and Bluetooth. Operator-assisting features include EQ and compression, anti-feedback to prevent howling, and auto mixing to balance multiple microphones. They reduce the risk of audio problems and maintain clear, high-quality sound.
Automation supports single-operator production. Macros record and replay operation sequences, while the sequencer runs macros in order. Scene changes, picture-in-picture and captions can be executed with one button, reducing operator workload and on-air mistakes. This lets operators focus on the program and unexpected situations, enabling sophisticated, accurate production even with a one-person crew.
Flexible video inputs and compositing. All six HDMI inputs have scalers, allowing PCs and cameras with different resolutions and frame rates to connect without converters, reducing preparation and cost. A powerful engine supports up to two PinP windows and DSK simultaneously. Overlay presenters on slides or create L-shaped layouts to deliver engaging, information-rich content with higher production quality.
Simple setup and extensive connectivity: connect to a PC or Mac via USB-C and the VR-6HD is recognized as a webcam without a driver, ready for livestreaming. Deliver high-quality video and audio through familiar platforms such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and YouTube Live. Control up to six PTZ cameras over LAN so one person can handle both video switching and camera work. This connectivity and easy setup are valuable where time and staff are limited.
