introductory lessons using that easy to understand and follow medium.
The link to online videos mentioned in the previous section takes you to a long list of tutorials for NewTek
products designed for all users, novice or adept. From initial product registration to live production,
streaming and exporting to social media services, to advanced topics such as
M/E

and
Automation
, you’ll find it illustrated and explained here.
It’s very
likely that you will be able to easily learn the basics of live production with NewTek systems by
viewing these videos. When you need deeper knowledge, you will find Part II of this guide, the Reference
section, helpful.
Hint: Generally, thanks to the considerable consistency across the NewTek family of products, you will be able
to benefit from tutorials prepared for any model.
