This spectacular and innovative control surface is the perfect complement to
TriCaster 8000. TriCaster 8000's unparalleled integration of advanced live
production technologies offers many exciting new creative possibilities. Fittingly, an
incredibly powerful and innovative control surface is included with the system.
TriCaster™ 8000 CS provides more than just control; it goes well beyond the norm in
providing useful feedback. You'll quickly find yourself at home with its features and
functions.
The TriCaster 8000 CS control layout closely conforms to the user interface, the
principle exception being that singular M/E and Position control groups governed by
delegate buttons serve the purpose of multiple controls in the UI.
Controls are comprised of grouped sets including the following hardware types:
Backlit push buttons
Twist knobs
T-bars
3-axis joystick
Both TriCaster's Live Desktop and the control surface supply delegate button groups
to govern other controls. This is extends the capability of controls and also supports
multi-selections, thus permitting simultaneous operations.
When initially selecting multiple delegates, the settings and states of the individual
members selected will often vary. For example – when you delegate several M/Es at
once, the transition Rate for various channels in the multi-selection could very well
be different. Generally, wherever it makes sense to do so, settings for multi-delegated
groups the settings are progressively synchronized as you make adjustments.

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.

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.
