 Record toggle
 DDR options
 Preset (DDR Playlist)
 DDR Transport (clip playback and position controls)
Let’s take a closer look at the members of each control group and their purpose.
22.6.3 DDR DELEGATE
FIGURE 297
Much of the functionality of your TriCaster 850 TW relates to clip
playback, navigation, and the like. These are essentially Media Player
functions, controlling one or another of TriCaster’s DDRs.
The first two buttons in this group (DDR 1 and DDR 2) basically delegate
the other controls to the service of the DDR named (TriCaster 300 is, of
course unique in having just one DDR).
Note: These buttons only relate to TriCaster 850 TW operations, and do not
interact with the Switcher (or TriCaster 855 CS) delegate buttons.
The third button in this group button is not a delegate button (nor is it a radio button). The DDR 1/DDR 2
button is a toggle switch. When enabled, it tells the control surface to apply DDR Transport control group
operations to both DDRs (see Section 22.6.11).
TW-42 N OTES There is no corresponding DDR 1/DDR 2 button on TW-42. Multi-delegating DDRs is not
supported with this control surface.
22.6.4 EDIT GROUP
FIGURE 298
In general, these buttons operate on selected playlist content
in the currently delegated DDR (see Section 22.6.3).
 Remove – Push to remove currently selected entries from
the delegated DDR’s playlist (selected items are not
deleted from the hard drive, however).
TW-42 N OTES The Remove button is labeled RMV on TW-42.
 Copy – Push to copy currently selected playlist items into the Paste buffer.
 Paste – Push to insert Paste buffer content into the playlist of the delegated DDR
 Esc – close any popup dialog or text entry item.
The DDR 1 and DDR 2 buttons are
‘radio button’ controls. This
means that they operate just like
the ‘Favorite’ buttons provided
on a car radio to let you jump to a
preset station.
Pressing a button produces an
immediate change of state, and
your selections are mutually
exclusive.
