Enabling Follow Video options for an audio source directs TriCaster to track switcher
operations affecting the related video source.
FIGURE 257
Audio for sources with Follow Program video enabled in the Audio Configuration panel
is automatically removed from mixed outputs until one or more specified video
sources are actually displayed on Program Output.
Hint: When the corresponding video source is not displayed on output, the audio source's
VU meter level is displayed as a grayscale.
The Audio Configuration panel also provides complete Pan control.
Pan is a very useful feature. It adjusts placement of sound from source audio channels
on the stereo channels comprising the audio mix(es).
Using Pan, you can place all or part of
channel A onto channel B, and vice
versa.
When Pan is set to the
extreme left position for Input
1a, its audio is sent exclusively to the first channel for the Input 1 group.

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.
