While primarily designed to support the 4-input TriCaster models, this unit and its
similar sibling have been extended capabilities that allow them to work with any Pro
model, even including TriCaster 860 and 8000. This makes them perfect travelling
companions or backup units for use with the entire TriCaster Pro lineup.
22.5.1 DELEGATES AND SYNCHRONIZATION
Delegate button groups govern other controls on the control surface. Some delegates
support multi-selection, allowing simultaneous operations to be performed. When
initially selecting multiple delegates, as often as not the settings and states of the
individual members selected will vary. For example, when you delegate both DSK's
at once in the TRANSITION DELEGATE group, the RATE for current transitions for the
two DSKs could well be different.
Generally, wherever it makes sense to do so, when you make adjustments to settings
for multi-delegate features, the settings will be progressively synchronized, then
advance in lock step.
22.5.2 SWITCHER DELEGATES
FIGURE 357
This delegate group dictates what the FX/OVERLAY, PROGRAM and PREVIEW rows
will control. The options are mutually exclusive – that is, multiple selections are not
supported. Choose one of:
MAIN
M/E 1
M/E 2
M/E 3
M/E 4

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.
