Chapter 15 AUDIO
Less than 100 years ago, movies were silent. We’ve come a very long way since “The Jazz
Singer” (1927, Warner Bros.), and great audio now plays a huge role in video production.
TriCaster
®
provides an extensive set of professional quality audio tools, which we’ll
explore in this chapter.
External audio connections and basic configuration were touched on back in Sections 3.4.1 and 3.7.1.
TriCaster
®
presents more precise control over individual audio sources and outputs in a tabbed pane labeled
Audio Mixer, found just below the main Switcher.
FIGURE 15-1 (TRICASTER 8000 SHOWN)
Compact sub-panels in this pane provide configuration and control for individual audio sources and also
audio outputs as follows, from left to right:
External audio sources – controls for Inputs 1-(8 or 12, depending on the TriCaster model).
Internal sources – Media Players, and Effects (sound embedded in Animation Store transitions).
Stream – controls TriCaster’s web stream output.
Aux 1 to 3 – controls for TriCaster’s two stereo Aux audio busses.
Master – controls TriCaster’s primary stereo audio busses.
(Individual Record level controls are located in the Record Configuration panel.)
NOTE: 2RU TriCaster systems do not provide analog output connections for channels 3 and 4. However
the extra channels can be recorded, streamed, or output via SDI-embedded connections.
