Hybrid to the MaxThe V-160HD combines the robust hardware needed to flawlessly execute live productions with the livestreaming capabilities found in computer-based systems. While software workflows are fine for online-only events, the V-160HD delivers the pro essentials you need for both the in-person and streaming components of a live hybrid event, complete with the ability to tailor the content for each audience.

– On-demand signal processing means you never have to worry about issues like computer CPU overhead, latency, and output delay on live audience screens.
– Integrated connectivity standards like SDI, HDMI, XLR, and USB-C eliminate the need to build out costly infrastructure and conversion processes.
– The comprehensive interface provides hands-on controls that can be learned quickly by a single operator.
– Presets, macros, and advanced sequencing features let you set up and automate complex switching tasks with one touch.

HDMI and SDI ConnectivityThe V-160HD supports HDMI for common A/V devices plus SDI for long cable runs and high-end cameras. Seamlessly mix eight HDMI sources and eight SDI sources in Full HD, even with mismatched frame rates and color spaces. And with built-in scalers on four of the HDMI inputs, you can easily interface with client-provided sources like computers, tablets, smartphones, gaming consoles, and legacy 4:3 devices.
