Preset adjustments made using the mouse and canvas vary slightly, however, for
holographic effects.

For a standard LiveSet effect, dragging the mouse left, right, up or down changes the
camera position in the frame; the mouse-wheel zooms in or out. In a holographic
LiveSet, mouse-wheel operations are the same, zooming in or out. However
dragging the mouse laterally or vertically on the canvas modifies camera rotation,
rather than position.

Hint: Holographic effects, like standard LiveSets, are compiled using the optional Virtual
Set Editor application. A demo version of this utility is installed on your TriCaster, and its
instruction manual can be located in Startup>Help.

SECTION 14.3 KEY CHANNELS

The Key channels in M/E panes match the DSK channels found
in the Switcher’s main Transition section in almost all respects.

Unlike the DSKs, though, they constitute a ‘pre-Switcher’ sub-
layer. This means that Key channels are applied before the
composition is sent to the Switcher (or another M/E). Content
in a Key channel appears beneath anything displayed via the
(Switcher) DSK channels.

Key channel selection and Position controls work just like their DSK cousins,
discussed earlier (see 9.3.1), the sole distinction being that their behavior in
connection with Autoplay mimics other M/E sources.
