Just as in the Live Desktop, the Overlay row selection determines the source for the
Overlay layer of an M/E. However, since the control surface supports selection of
multiple M/Es simultaneously, operations can affect more than one M/E at a time.

Likewise, the A (Input A) and B (Input B) row selections determine the sources for
those layers for delegated M/Es. All three rows provide buttons for all camera inputs,
Net 1, Net 2, all Media Players (excluding Sound), Virtual Buffer, Black (TriCaster 860
CS only) and FX.
Hint: Punching FX is a quick way to assign the row to the Green (FX) switcher row group.

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.
