Ensuring high quality while protecting the environment: Roland is ISO9001 and ISO14001 certified
At Roland, several group companies have obtained ISO9001 certification. In addition, in January 1999, Roland also received ISO14001 international environmental management system certification. We’re
actively seeking ways to maintain harmony with the environment. (ISO=International Standardization Organization: an organization for the promotion of standardization of international units and terms. They
provide different categories of certification: ISO9001 Series certification is a product quality certification for products that undergo a certain level of quality control from the design stage to the after service stage;
ISO14001 Series certification is for environment-related standards. Each member of the Roland Group is striving to obtain certification.)
Using V-LINK, musicians can “play” video from their electronic instrument when used with EDIROL video products. With V-LINK, musicians have a powerful interface for realtime
audio and video integration.

SPAN MODE
Various video sources can be mixed seamlessly without
external video converters.
Two independent outputs enable powerful multi-screen video productions.
Text/Graphic from a PC/Mac can be composited on
background video content. HD output is available for
display, recording, or broadcasting and SD output is
available for monitoring, live streaming or recording.
Displays a single image across two screens.
Edge Blending function enables seamless image
across a wide screens.
Using the thru out connectors, one video input can be daisy-chained to
multiple inputs. The scaler for each input can zoom into any position in the
video image enabling a virtual multi-camera environment. This gives the
appearance that you have additional cameras connected.
Using SPLIT Mode, two video inputs can be displayed on one
display. This is useful for comparing two videos on a single screen.
Using the DUAL Mode, two video inputs can be switched
individually. Switching the both inputs at same time is also
possible. Preview monitoring of each output enables confident
operation.
*In DUAL Mode, PinP, Key, DSK, External Control
are not available. Video transitions available
are CUT and Mix (Fade In/Out).
*In SPLIT Mode, PinP, Key, DSK, External
Control are not available. Video transitions

Multi-Format Solution for the HD Generation
HD video sources are now a common video format. The need to also
mix in other video sources and formats makes the V-1600HD
a necessary component for today's live video production.
