REPLAY
(1,
2,
3,
4)
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 surface, 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.
Stripe 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 instant replay, press
CTRL
+
AUTO
to initiate the DDR’s
Show On
operation.
This powerful workflow is ideal for replays from individual
Switcher
inputs. However, the four
MIX
outputs
(which typically includes Program output as MIX 1) do not appear on the
Switcher
button rows
–
so another
method is required in this case:
•
Press a button numbered
1-4
in the
Secondary Command Group
(with
NUM LOCK
off) to trigger a
replay from the corresponding (
MIX 1-4
) recorder.
•
Hold down
CTRL
when doing the above to defer playback of the replay clip.
•
Add
SHIFT
to either of the above to double the length of the replay clip.
Hint: If you execute an instant replay operation while another replay is incomplete, the newer replay angle will
replace the former one on output and the duration of the replay will be extended.
