Roland MVS-12 Multi-Viewer Switcher
Multi-viewer with simple matrix switcher for convenient video monitoring
The MVS-12 groups and displays up to 12 SD video signals to a single HD or RGB monitor. This multi-viewer is an ideal companion for the popular line of SD video mixers such as the LVS-800 and V-8. The MVS-12 also features a built-in Matrix Switcher allowing any of the 12 video sources to be routed to four different outputs such as separate rooms, screens, or web-streaming devices.
- 12 composite video inputs (SD)
- HDMI/RGB video outputs for multi-viewer (HD)
- 4 multi-viewer layouts (Divide the screen in 4, 9, 10 and 12)
- Parameters and input select can be controlled using a mouse
- Controllable via Ethernet, RS-232C and MIDI
- Displays channel selection on monitor using V-LINK

Matrix Switcher
Using the built-in Matrix Switcher function, 12 video sources are assignable to 4 different outputs. Use as a simple switcher.
Multi-View
There are four layout patterns to choose from. Aspect ratios, background color and source names can be selected from the MENU.
Four display setups can be saved and recalled from the 4 front panel memory buttons. In addition, the MVS-12 can be controlled from a PC via LAN or RS-232C.
Multi-Solutions
Multi-viewer and Matrix switcher function enables system expansion.
The MVS-12 is a perfect companion for the LVS-800 allowing you to preview all monitor outputs. Using a MIDI connection the PGM/PVM video source is displayed and indicated by a red frame and green frame (tally).
Video sources can be distributed to up to four different locations.
The Matrix Switcher function enables the V-1600HD mixer to access additional SD inputs. By connecting a MIDI cable and using the V-LINK function, the V-1600HD can directly select any video source from the MVS-12.
• Please note that the MVS-12 does not function as a multi-viewer for the V-1600HD. The inputs and formats of the MVS-12 and the V-1600HD are not directly compatible. This example is an illustration of standard definition input expansion for the V-1600HD only.
