13 AUDIO

Less than 100 years ago, movies were silent. We’ve come a very
long way since “The Jazz Singer” (1927, Warner Bros.) High quality
audio and audio management tools are almost certainly a
requirement for your live productions.

When it comes to audio, TriCaster provides professional quality and
convenience, which we’ll explore in this chapter.

External audio connections and configuration were briefly discussed back in Sections 3.4.1 and
3.5.1. You’ll recall that there are three groups of audio inputs (numbered 1-3) on TriCaster’s
faceplate, along with separate connections for Program output (PGM), Auxiliary output (AUX),
and headphones (PHONES). In addition, of course, live network streams contain audio output.

The Audio Mixer tab (Figure 171) is home to all of the controls required to manage both audio
input and output.
