When a Multiview monitor is in use the two Workspace preset options can be
combined with great flexibility, letting you see what you want to see where you want
to see it. It's easy to set up complementary displays in the two monitor areas.
For example, you might show main Program and Preview monitors along with all 8
M/Es on the Live Desktop. Meanwhile, the Multiview monitor could display up to eight
live Camera feeds plus Media Players, as well as the (program) output and B row
selections for a specified M/E set to Mix mode.

Notice too that you can also drag the horizontal divider between the Live Desktop
monitor pane and the Switcher to adjust it. You can even move it all the way to the
bottom of the Dashboard, thus hiding the Desktop monitor pane entirely (Figure 114),
providing much more room for other modules in the process.
Hint: Reset the Live Desktop divider to its default location by double-clicking it.
We mentioned previously, as well, that clicking the Mix Effects label (Figure 115)
between the Monitor and Switcher sections toggles display of the M/E pane.

Can the switcher have a background still with PPT slides over top rightside of frame, and then have live camera feed on left?

Yes, the NewTek TriCaster Mini can display a background still with PowerPoint slides on the right side of the frame and a live camera feed on the left. It supports compositing live and video-on-demand inputs, including PowerPoint slides from a connected computer. The system allows for chroma key operations and mixing multiple video sources, enabling such a layout.

my tricaster only has one KEY option and two DSK options and 4 Mix Effect options. is there a way to add more of these items into my tricaster layout?

The TriCaster Mini includes Key layers in M/Es, which function similarly to Downstream Key (DSK) layers but are embedded upstream in the Mix Effect (M/E) output. However, the provided context does not mention the ability to add more KEY, DSK, or Mix Effect options beyond what is already available in the system.

Thank you for answering my question. There is a buzz on the output of our Tricaster410. Not sure why this is happening now.

A possible cause of a buzz or distortion on the output of a NewTek TriCaster Mini could be incorrect audio gain settings in the Output Configuration. Specifically, the gain controls for STREAM 1 and STREAM 2 may need to be adjusted. Setting the gain to -20 can eliminate distortion and align the output level with the TriCaster MASTER.
