LiveSet is one of TriCaster's most powerful tools, and can dramatically enhance a
production.
With it you can achieve the look of a large, sophisticated studio setting (Figure 237)
within a very small studio space (Figure 236), all without external equipment.
Broadly speaking, setup of a LiveSet effect is much like the Default effects previously
considered (see Default Effects, Section 14.2.2). A typical LiveSet consists of a
greenscreen shot (usually input A) with LiveMatte applied composited into a virtual
set. LiveSet adds the foreground and background for the scene, and additional video
inputs may add to the effect in various ways.
Hint: Most virtual sets require LiveMatte settings to be applied to Input A. Other inputs may
also require keying, depending on the design of the virtual set.
To select a LiveSet, click the label above the effect icon in the M/E to open the Media
Browser (Section 11.2.2).

Questions and answers
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.
