The V-Fire is a 24-bit/96k R-BUS to FireWire computer recording system for both Windows XP and Macintosh computer systems. The V-Fire allows the user to convert Roland's R-BUS digital audio format to FireWire (IEEE 1394), thus providing a multi-channel computer interface for Roland products equipped with R-BUS output.

The V-Fire features two R-BUS ports and two FireWire ports allowing sixteen channels of digital audio to stream at up to 24-bit 96K sample rate. The V-Fire is also equipped with R-BUS 1, R-BUS 2 and master sync LED indicators.

V-Fire also comes with a software control panel enabling the user to select the sample rate (44.1K, 48K, 88.2K, and 96K), latency, buffer size and clock source.
