Mute; Connection Type - NewTek TriCaster 850 User Manual

You may choose to think of these audio sources as being associated with the same-numbered
video inputs in the nearby rows (see the sub-heading Follow, below) but you are completely free
to use them in various other configurations.
13.1.1

MUTE

Figure 207
The labeled header for each input or source is also where Mute switches are located. Click
anywhere in the header's grey band to toggle Mute for all associated channels; or (when multiple
Mute switches are shown) click a single speaker icon directly to disable that channel.
Mute has a couple of interesting and potentially useful features:

Enabling Mute for a source removes its sound from all outputs except Aux. For Aux, the
source is not muted except when the Aux source setting is "All".

Solo can mimic mute, in that a soloed source is also removed from Master and Stream
outputs, but (even when muted) continues to be sent to Aux when the latter's source is
set to "Solo".
Note: Audio 7 is automatically muted when Use Linear timecode (LTC) is enabled in Timecode
Configuration. You can un-mute it briefly to adjust signal levels, but of course you don't want this
to be audible during a live production – Solo might be useful in such cases.

CONNECTION TYPE

Figure 208
Individual sub-panel panels for external sources govern a group of audio connections comprised
variously of two XLR or ¼" phone jack inputs, or an SDI Embedded digital audio source.
