ALT + OUT
A different operation results when you hold down ALT (see Section 22.6.7) at the
same time as you push OUT. This operation updates the Out Point of the active clip in
the currently delegated DDR to the frame currently displayed.
SHIFT + OUT
Hold down SHIFT at the same time as you push OUT to automatically trim the play
start setting of the newly added clip to a frame five seconds prior to the Out Point (this
is a non-destructive trimming operation. The duration of the file on disk is not
modified.)
This feature is supported on TW-42 as well.
Hint: This is a non-destructive edit of the playlist clip, equivalent to dragging the trim handle
at right-hand end of the DDR scrub bar.

ARKING
Another handy method of creating clips for instant replay is referred to as 'one button
marking'. With Record enabled, watch for notable events, and simply press OUT
whenever one occurs (no need to press IN beforehand in this case). This creates a
new clip with an Out Point at the current frame, automatically setting the In Point to
establish a 5 second duration for the clip.
22.6.7 ALT AND QUALIFIERS
FIGURE 368
For ergonomic reasons, ALT is in a special location by itself just below the Play Speed
control group. It, along with SHIFT and CTRL (Control) are what are termed 'qualifiers
buttons', in that (like their keyboard equivalents) they qualify, or modify the outcome
of operating some other control.
We've discussed one use of ALT in Section 22.6.6; see also Section 22.6.8. At the time
of writing SHIFT and CTRL are reserved for as yet unspecified future purposes.

Do you have a question about the TriCaster Mini and is the answer not in the manual?
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.
