INTRODUCTION
Chapter 2
Thank you for purchasing this NewTek TriCaster™ system.
NewTek is extremely proud of its record of innovation and
commitments to excellence in design, manufacture, and superb
product support. This chapter provides a quick tour of the major
components of your new live production system.
SECTION 2.1 MEET THE FAMILY
All professional model TriCasters bear a strong family resemblance. The user
interfaces of TriCaster Mini, 410, 460 and 860 have a great deal in common with the
flagship system, TriCaster 8000. The latter, of course, has a number of unique
attributes and features, but many aspects of the workflow and user software are
intentionally very similar. Among other benefits, this makes it easy for TriCaster
users working with multiple machines to feel right at home and avoid errors.
SECTION 2.2 OVERVIEW
Not so long ago, live high definition television production demanded very expensive
equipment, daunting technical skills, and a large crew. TriCaster™ changed all that.
In one compact system, it provides a complete set of tools you can use to create,
broadcast, web stream and project your production. TriCaster even includes
NewTek’s latest edition of the famous LiveSet™ virtual set system to provide you
with network quality ‘bigger than life’ production capabilities.
TriCaster continues to raise the bar for live production systems. Simply put,
TriCaster represents the most complete, reliable and efficient integrated system
available for live production and web streaming. Its capabilities are equally well
suited to broadcast center installations and remote production, and it can be
operated, if desired, by just one person.
No matter what your live broadcast ambitions are, NewTek and TriCaster stand
ready to help you fulfill them.
