A.1 INTRODUCTION
Currently available for TriCaster ® TC1 and NewTek™ IP Series VMC1™ owners, membership in the Premium
Access program gives you unlimited access to a growing list of cutting- edge tools and technology. Let’s
consider them one by one beginning with one of the most exciting developments of all.
A.2 LIVESTORY™
This powerful Premium Access feature delivers numerous and powerful benefits. At the lowest level, you
might use it simply as a very convenient and useful
teleprompter for your show’s talent. Coupled with the
NDI Studio Monitor included in the free NDI Tools bundle, this is a great feature. There’s a great deal more
to LiveStory ™ , however: LiveStory is first and foremost a powerful natural language automation system.

Click or tap the (+) plus sign gadget below and to the right of the tab to open a File Explorer . Here you can
navigate to a location where you have previously stored a .docx file such as those created in Microsoft Word®
(or compatible software with similar features). Figure 321 illustrat
es the result. Let’s discuss a few of the
LiveStory interface controls and features before continuing.
