Roland

Roland’s video converters address the demand for high-quality, lossless video and audio converters for live/post production as well as installed systems. Each provide a unique set of features that are not available in any other converter in this class. See what sets each one apart in the following videos.

What Makes the Roland VC-1-SC Video Converter Unique

The VC-1-SC is a Up/Down/Cross Scan converter to SDI/HDMI with Frame Sync.
It enables the conversion of composite, component, RGB, HDMI/DVI or SDI video signals to HDMI/DVI and SDI signals. It includes full scaling ability as well as a frame sync. In addition you can embedding audio into the signal or monitor the incoming audio from a digital input. See more at www.vc1series.com

Video devices that accept digital signals such as SDI and HDMI have become more common in live production, and as a result, the need for video conversion is essential. The Roland VC-1-SC Video Converter is ideal for live production where you need analog or digital sources to match a certain SDI and/or HDMI video format, aspect ratio, or input type. The versatility of this converter to support a variety of configurations for live production and installed application make it highly valuable in many environments.

VC-1-SC Highlights:

• 3G (Level A and B)/HD/SD SDI In/Out
• HDMI In/Out
• RGB/Component In
• Composite In
• HDCP Support
• Built-in Frame Synchronizer and Scaler
• Up/Down/Cross, Frame Rate, I/P, and Aspect Ratio Conversion
• Audio Embedding or De-Embedding
• PC/Mac Control Application (VC-1 RCS) for deeper level settings control

What Makes the Roland VC-1-DL Video Converter Unique

The VC-1-DL is a bi-directional SDI/HDMI converter with audio/video delay and frame sync). The VC-1 series provides uncompromising picture quality by maintaining the video characteristics of the original signal with rich-blacks and super-whites. There are no interlacing artifacts or other conversion or signal errors sometimes found in some other video converters. The VC-1 series also features an on-board re-clocker to compensate for attenuation of SDI signals carried over long distances. The VC-1 series also supports both level A and B 3G-SDI, letting you connect a variety of higher quality SDI sources.

The VC-1 series is HDCP compliant allowing you to convert or pass-through HDCP signals with the exception of any SDI output. The VC-1-DL additionally enables the HDCP signal to be delayed. Selectable audio embedding and de-embedding lets you route different audio sources to or from video devices. Digital AES/EBU input and output signals are supporting ensuring high-quality audio signals can be maintained through the signal flow.

In live production as you add more video components to a signal flow, latency is introduced. The VC-1-DL converter not only allows bidirectional conversion of SDI/HDMI but it also provides frame sync and delay adjustment of up to 9 fields (4.5 frames) for audio and video independently. This is helpful when keeping various types of cameras in sync as well as ensuring a projector stays in sync with an LED wall. In this way it is an indispensable tool in live production, broadcast and recording applications.

What Makes the Roland VC-1-HS and VC-1-SH Video Converters Unique

The VC-1-SH is a SDI to HDMI converter with audio embedding and de-embedding.
The VC-1-HS is a HDMI to SDI video converter.
The VC-1 series provides uncompromising picture quality by maintaining the video characteristics of the original signal with rich-blacks and super-whites. There are no interlacing artifacts or other conversion or signal errors sometimes found in some other video converters. The VC-1 series also features an on-board re-clocker to compensate for attenuation of SDI signals carried over long distances.

Digital AES/EBU input and output signals are supporting ensuring high-quality audio signals can be maintained through the signal flow.

Roland VC-1-HS- Increasingly HDMI video cameras are being used for live production. The VC-1-HS converts, extends and embeds audio from HDMI to SDI. This converter is especially complimentary to the Roland V-1600HD and V-800HD multi-format video mixers when you want to use SDI signals for camera inputs on the mixer.

Roland VC-1-SH -- The cost of SDI monitoring sometimes can be prohibitive for certain applications. The VC-1-SH converter allows you to convert an SDI signal to HDMI, providing a more cost effective monitoring solution. This converter is also complimentary to the Roland V-40HD multi-format video mixer when you want to use an SDI camera as an input to the mixer.

What Does Lossless Video Conversion Mean?

Roland's VC-1 video converters address the demand for high-quality, lossless video and audio converters for live/post production as well as installed systems. The digital only models have the ability to provide a "lossless" conversion - in particular the VC-1-HS (HDMI to SDI), VC-1-SH (SDI to HDMI), and VC-1-DL (Bi-directional SDI/HDMI with audio/video delay and frame sync).

This video demonstrates the evidence of providing uncompromising picture quality by maintaining the video characteristics of the original signal with rich-blacks and super-whites, no interlacing artifacts or other conversion or signal errors sometimes found with other video converters.
