22.6.12 TIPS AND TRICKS
 Primary and Secondary – TriCaster’s IsoCorder™ technology supports multi-source capture. TimeWarp
utilizes the Primary recording channel, but does not prevent use of the Secondary capture channels for
all manner of other purposes.
 Audio Control – Remember that you can reduce (or Mute) the audio for replays individually using the
local playlist pane audio controls in a DDR, or with the DDR level controls provided in TriCaster’s Audio
tab(s).
 DSKs and LiveSet - TriCaster provides a great deal of creative versatility in connection with instant
replays. For example, a DDR with replay clips that is assigned to the Overlay channel of an M/E can be
quickly displayed or hidden (with its own transition effect). And, of course, something similar can be
achieved with either of the primary DSK layers.
 Zoom, Crop (etc.) – Use the Position tools for Overlay and DSK layers to zoom in on the action in a replay.
 Clip Organization – It can be helpful, at times, to use the MEM slot options in the DDR to collate clips for
different purposes.
SECTION 22.7 AVID ® ARTIST MIX
TriCaster’s support for the AVID® Artist Mix hardware surface brings a highly desirable level of convenience
and creative control to a critical aspect of almost every video production – audio. This section explains how
to connect and use this powerful third party device.
The AVIDI Artist Mix hardware surface provides great convenience, delivering hands-on external audio
control to TriCaster operators. Adjust audio levels, channel panning, equalization, select mixer presets, and
more.
The compact Artist Mix console provides excellent visual feedback, and delivers control beyond what can
possibly be provided with the mouse and keyboard alone. Almost all adjustments are bi-directional –
adjusting the control surface updates the user interface controls, and vice versa. Artist Mix communicates
