External audio connections and basic configuration were touched on back in Sections
3.5.1 and 3.8.1. TriCaster presents more precise control over individual audio
sources and outputs in a tabbed pane labeled Audio Mixer, found just below the main
Switcher.
FIGURE 247 (TRICASTER 8000 SHOWN)
Compact sub-panels in this pane provide configuration and control for individual
audio sources and also audio outputs as follows, from left to right:
External audio sources – controls for Inputs 1-(4 or 8, depending on the
TriCaster model), along with Network audio sources.
Internal sources – Media Players, and Effects (sound embedded in Animation
Store transitions)
Record – controls levels for capturing Output 1 and Output 2 as a/v files
Stream – controls TriCaster's web stream output
Aux 1 & 2–controls for TriCaster's two stereo Aux audio busses
Master 1 & 2 – controls TriCaster's primary stereo audio busses
Less than 100 years ago, movies were silent. We've come a very
long way since "The Jazz Singer" (1927, Warner Bros.), and great
audio now plays a huge role in video production. TriCaster™
provides an extensive set of professional quality audio tools,
which we'll explore in this chapter.

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.
