Mix Effects - NewTek TriCaster Mini HD-4 Manual

These next-level steps will introduce you to a section of the Live Desktop we haven't talked about yet – the
Mix Effects panel.

When you first start a session, the Mix Effects panel is hidden. To open the Mix Effects panel:
#1
Click on the divider bar located above the switcher that is labeled MIX EFFECTS

the switcher itself. This is a Mix Effects panel, also known as an M/E, and it has two modes—MIX and
EFFECTS. Let's take a moment to explore the M/E to see how the most essential controls are organized in
each mode.
