Deliver network-quality HD live production using TriCaster 850, paired with the powerful
TriCaster 850 CS optional control surface, designed specifically to mirror the TriCaster
850 interface. Illuminated buttons, twist knobs, a premium T-bar and three-axis joystick
provide a physical connection to all TriCaster functions and effects. The combination packs
the power of a network television
studio into a versatile, 4U rack mount system with full touch control of the 24-channel system.
The versatility of TriCaster 850 and TriCaster 850 CS works for both desktop and portable live
production. With the ability to simultaneously broadcast, live stream, project and record
network-quality HD video, TriCaster 850 allows you to get your message to a global audience,
quickly and easily. Build your brand, extend your reach and increase your advertising inventory
and sponsorship revenue – anytime, anywhere.
As more and more people rely on live video for information and entertainment, from traditional
broadcasts, to the Internet and other digital media, TriCaster 850, lets you deliver your video
in up to 1080p resolution, and stream live to the Internet and other digital media, in up to 720p
resolution – the highest in the industry. With just the click of a button, you can simultaneously
record your productions in up to 1080p resolution.
TriCaster 850 supports video input from up to eight cameras, in any combination of HD-SDI, HD
component, SD-SDI, SD component, Y/C and composite; and includes support for four channels of AES
digital audio or balanced XLR analog audio per camera, and SDI embedded audio support for each camera
connected through HD-SDI or SD-SDI inputs.
This 24-channel, HD/SD live production switcher also includes benefits such as 18 HD live virtual sets
(using proprietary NewTek LiveSet™ technology) and advanced matte generation; two network inputs
(using proprietary NewTek iVGA™ technology) for connection to an unlimited number of external displays
from a Mac® or PC; overlay with keying, positioning, scaling, cropping, and rotation in 3D, plus animated
effects; enhanced media player capabilities; full field rate preview monitors, color Waveform and Vectorscope
displays, and multi-view monitoring (shown below) of all inputs and outputs; redundant power supply; removable
storage, and much more.
Add the optional TriCaster Virtual Set Editor (VSE) and you can deliver your live production from a customized
network-style virtual environment. Specially designed TriCaster VSE Sets produce real-time reflections and
specular highlights, and include a wide range of elements that can be edited. With TriCaster VSE you also have
the option to create your own original virtual sets by populating Layer Sets with your artwork, or composing
layers in Adobe® Photoshop®, and then importing the layers into TriCaster VSE, which instantly transforms the
PSD file into a double-box effect or Layer Set for use in VSE.
Now it’s time to take control of your live production and streaming with TriCaster 850.
