To set a new shortcut or modify an existing one, click in the Shortcut field at lower
left in the Macro Configuration Editor panel (it will display a "Listening ..." tag).
Then press the desired keystroke (or control surface Macro button combination).
Hint: For clarity, lower-case characters are shown as capitals. True upper-case letters are
displayed in the form [Shift + (character)].
Shortcuts are 'per user', allowing you to employ your personal favorites without
conflicting with the shortcut preferences of other users. Speaking of conflicts, note
that assigning a single shortcut combination to multiple macros is supported.
Conflicted keystrokes are shown in red. You can resolve conflicts in several ways.
Of course you can assign a different keystroke to conflicted macros. Or you can
disable them if you like, using the checkmark switch at left for the entries involved.
Hint: Folder level enable/disable switches offer an altrnative method for managing
program-specific shortcuts. The keystroke assignments for entire folders full of macros
designed for various programs or purposes may conflict with shortcuts in another folder.,
but keystrokes for any inactive folders are ignored.
Otherwise, pressing the conflicted shortcut key will perform all macros sharing that
keystroke assignment – which may be just what you had in mind.

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.
