MONITORS

By default, the upper third of the Live Desktop is covered with monitors. Large full-time Program and Preview
monitors occupy the right half of the upper (monitoring) section. Let's discuss them first.
The Program monitor (at right in Figure
27) displays the video output TriCaster is
currently sending to downstream devices
and ultimately, to your viewing audience.
The Preview monitor (at left in Figure 27)
displays the output that would result from
performing a Take operation with the
current source selections.
Note that the use of a TriCaster 40CS
control surface allows multiple sources to
be switched simultaneously, using its
Delegate buttons. The Preview monitor display respects multi-delegate selections, too. We'll discuss Preview
again momentarily in the context of switching (Section 3.3). The Preview monitor shows interactive Proc Amp
(etc.) indicators when appropriate, too, just like those we discussed back in Section 2.3.2.
