You will probably find that standard mode works best for most operations apart from EQ, however.
To enable/disable or reset the Comp/Limiter, hold SHIFT and press the EQ (Knob Set) button, then press
CHAN, to turn Channel mode off; the display should show the Threshold level). Press the SEL Y button beside
a fader to select an input, and press SEL button below the OLED to toggle EQ for this input; or press ON (just
beneath) to reset the Compressor/Limiter.
22.7.16 FLIP MODE
The shifted state of the CHAN button is labeled FLIP . Like the former, FLIP also affects the mapping of the Artist
Mix controls. In this case, the roles of the fader and the rotary knob are swapped. For example – in the default
PAN Knob Set mode, the faders normally controls source levels, while the rotary knob adjusts Balance or Pan.
When FLIP is active, it’s the other way around.
While not particularly useful for most operations, FLIP comes into its own in EQ mode, allowing you to use
the much larger faders to provide convenient control over the rather similar sliders in TriCaster’s equalizer
(don’t forget to turn flip off when you switch back to normal
PAN mode, though).
22.7.17 INSERT
The INPUT/INSERTS button serves several important purposes. It can be used to reassign the label for a slider
input to a different TriCaster audio control by name, or to insert (or remove) a new
(initially unassigned) control column on the surface.
Controls for unused inputs or outputs can be removed from the surface, or if you wish,
you can re-order controls using the Remove and Insert features. To insert a new control
strip on the surface, proceed as follows
1. Make sure FLIP and CHAN are both turned off, and then press the INSERTS button in the Knob Set group.
2. Rotate the knob for Input one clockwise, cycling through optional settings until the label above the
knob says Insert.
At this point, the small
SEL button just left of the rotary knob begins to flash, to indicate that if you
wish to confirm your selection you must press it (otherwise, press MIX/PAN to cancel the operation
and revert to the original selection).
3. Press the SEL button to execute the insertion.
This action inserts a new, unassigned control, pushing the original Artist Mix control group to the
right to make room for the addition.
4. Slowly rotate the same knob again – this time, you could choose an option (such as Master 1 option),
and then press
SEL once more to lock the input to TriCaster’s Input 1a (left) input channel. Instead,
just select Remove this time and press SEL to confirm.
Hint: Normally, if you insert a source that already appears elsewhere in the layout, the inserted control group is
kept and the original is removed.
