NewTek TriCaster Broadcast
This portable live production device enables you to deliver network quality programs to video, projector and Web with SDI support and a full range of professional tools.
Quickly connect and mix six serial digital cameras to provide full coverage of any venue and the flexibility to operate in either six-camera or three-camera mode: six cameras with shared preview or three cameras with a dedicated preview for each. NewTek iVGA™ connects any PC or Mac on the network with TriCaster as a live input and Flash, Windows Media and VC-1 streaming supported.
LiveSet™ technology gives a very small space the appearance of large network-style studio. Optional LiveText™ character generator allows remote control over show titles.
Easily cut to video using the dual on-board DDRs for perfect cut-ins every time; either virtual DDR may be used to overlay scrolls, crawls and motion titles, while titles and graphics may be locked upstream to any input. It is also possible to simultaneously record full-screen MPEG-2 while archiving your webcast.
Use of the TriCaster Broadcast can be further enhanced by adding the TimeWarp external replay controller.
