Three buttons labeled REC, STRM, and GRAB are located in the RECORD group.
REC – Pressing this button enables TriCaster's Record feature. As a safety
measure, pressing the REC button when recording is underway does not stop
recording.
Instead, the CTRL button flashes to reminds you that you must hold the CTRL
button down while pushing REC to end recording.
STREAM – Push to enable or disable
TriCaster's live streaming feature.
GRAB – Push to store a snapshot of Program
output using TriCaster's Grab feature.
22.3.8 SPECIAL BUTTONS
The SHIFT, CTRL and ALT buttons provided on the
control surface support extended features and future
expansion.
To the extent that these buttons are
currently assigned to any feature, they have been
described in context earlier.
The last button we will discuss offers spectacular convenience. TriCaster's powerful
macro system is fully addressable from 8000CS. A macro can be assigned to any
button on the control surface in much the same manner as it can be assigned to a
keyboard button. The steps are as follows:
1. On TriCaster's Live Desktop, open the Macro Configuration Editor.
2. Select the macro you wish to assign in the onscreen lister.
3. Click the mouse in the Listen field at bottom left.
4. Hold down the MACRO button and press a suitable button on the control
surface.

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.
