Roland Professional A/V (InfoComm 2026, North Hall, Booth N7735) will spotlight the V-1-4K and 4K solutions during InfoComm 2026. The V-1-4K is a compact 4K 60p video switcher designed to make it easier to transition to 4K workflows. In addition, the Graphics Presenter Version 3.0 software and the VenuSet control panel software, both of which support the V-1-4K, will also be on display.
The Roland V‑1‑4K Video Switcher, introduced in April 2026 and now shipping, offers professional 4K performance in a portable form factor. The switcher includes multi-channel HDMI and USB connectivity, built-in scaling, region-of-interest (ROI) support, professional audio mixing, remote control software, and more, making it well-suited for live events, streaming, worship, and presentation workflows.
“As 4K sources and displays become standard across event production, corporate facilities, broadcast studios, and educational spaces, users need imaging tools that deliver high-quality results without the size, cost, and complexity of traditional broadcast systems. The V-1-4K addresses this need by delivering 4K performance in a portable and approachable design suitable for both emerging and experienced operators,” according to the announcement.
Building on the workflow of Roland’s V-1 series, the V-1-4K offers 4K 60p and HDR processing in a more compact footprint. The all-in-one hardware design includes:
• Five HDMI 2.0 inputs and six total outputs, including HDMI, USB, and multi-view.
• Upgraded scalers on every input for seamless operation with mixed 4K and HD video sources.
• USB-C 4K streaming output for direct use with popular conferencing, streaming, and capture platforms.
• Multi-channel audio mixing with effects and processing.
• Built-in control for a wide range of PTZ cameras.
• Remote operation supported through dedicated Roland control apps for macOS, Windows, and iPadOS.
“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.” The announcement continues.
The V-1-4K 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.
Graphics Presenter Version 3.0
Roland’s companion Graphics Presenter software, 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, is it designed to create broadcast-style visuals without requiring a dedicated graphics workstation.
VenuSet Version 1.2
VenuSet Version 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 designed 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 can reduce barriers to high-quality video switching and allow more consistent, reliable operation.

The Roland V-1-4K Video Switcher will be available from June for $1,899.99.
