1. Instead, try this: simply click inside the Speed slider (engaging direct edit
mode), type "50" and press Enter to change playback Speed to 50%.
2. Click Play again, and observe that playback is now in smooth slow motion.
3. Adjust Speed again – notice that you can even modify Speed during playback.
4. Click Stop.
5. Hold down shift, and double-click the Speed value to reset it to its default.
Let's spend a moment learning how to trim a clip in the DDR. To do this you will use
tools in the Scrub Bar immediately beneath the playlist pane (Figure 69).
FIGURE 69
Drag the Scrub Bar's (square) knob left or right to change the current play position.
Trimming is accomplished by dragging the start and end points for the clip using the
blue ] and [ bracket controls at either end. (The mouse pointer changes to a double-
headed arrow when you move it over a trim control.)
6. Click the first (top-left) clip in the playlist, highlighting it.
7. Drag the trim controls to shorten the clip's runtime to 10 seconds (watching
the Duration display to the right of the Scrub Bar helps when trimming).
8. Record a few more clips, if you haven't already done so, and add several to the
playlist (either automatically or by using the + (Add Media) button).

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.
