23.1.10 REPLAY
Recent editions of TriCaster software provide powerful instant
replay workflow for any source with a recorder assigned to it. When
a Recorder is assigned to a source in its Input Configuration panel,
and you also enable the associated Instant Replay switch, special
replay buttons appear below the corresponding
Program and
Preview row buttons in the Live Desktop Switcher. VMC1 control
surfaces provide the same functionality as follows:
• To perform an instant replay from a Switcher source, hold
down the CTRL button while punching the PGM A/C row
button for the source. Double the length of the replay by
holding down
SHIFT along with CTRL .
• Or, defer playback of the instant replay as follows:
o Simply add the replay clip to the DDR playlist by clicking the source’s PREV B/D row button
(rather than the PGM row button) with CTRL (or CTRL + SHIFT ) held down.
o Then, when you’re ready to trigger the i nstant replay, press CTRL + AUTO to initiate the DDR’s
ShowOn operation.
Note: This powerful workflow is ideal for replays from Switcher inputs. However, the four MIX outputs (which
typically include Program output as MIX 1) do not appear on the Switcher button rows. To perform replays
from your Program output you can assign the system’s Mix 1 NDI output to an unused Switcher input, then
handle replays as described above.
You may find it useful to know that if you execute an instant replay operation before a currently playing
replay is complete, replay of the newer replay angle will replace the former one on output, and the duration
of the replay will be automatically extended.
SECTION 23.2
TRICASTER 8000 CS
For use with this software version, the TriCaster
8000 CS button map conforms precisely to that
of the TC1LP control surface described in the
previous section.
Note that the NewTek Control Surfaces applet,
launched from the Add- Ons menu in TriCaster’s
Startup Screen, lets you modify the default
Switcher row button mapping (Figure 290). You
can either remap Switcher row buttons
individually, or import a map conforming to the
original 8000 CS configuration.
