Product Description
The NewTek Flex Control Panel brings a new level of control to TriCaster users. It offers enhanced connectivity and superior control, all thanks to the amazing flexibility of NDI. With this panel, you can harness the power of the world's most comprehensive production system in a single control surface. For the first time, NewTek presents a control surface that handles video mixing, audio mixing, PTZ control, audio I/O, and talkback. The Flex Control Panel stands out with its excellent connectivity. It's the first of its kind to easily connect to a network via NDI and immediately take control of any video switcher on that network. It's also built to work seamlessly with any modern TriCaster, whether you're controlling the powerful TriCaster 2 Elite or mastering the TriCaster Mini X. When it comes to control, the Flex really shines. It allows you to do audio and video mixing, PTZ control, and talkback all in one unit. This significantly reduces the chances of errors for operators and offers greater precision and control than ever before. By providing audio I/O, it instantly expands the on - board I/O of any TriCaster, letting more external sources enter the NDI ecosystem directly from the panel. The NewTek Flex is highly compatible with various TriCaster models, including the TriCaster 2 Elite, TriCaster 1 Pro, TriCaster TC1, TriCaster 410 Plus, TriCaster Mini 4K, and TriCaster Mini X. Key features include an intuitive layout mapped to the Video Mix Engine user interface, IP - based connectivity with multi - engine control support over the network, responsive multi - bus operation with independently assignable control stripes, practical lighting, variable T - Bar illumination, dynamic LCD label displays, precision controls for real - time video operations, and premium craftsmanship for optimal performance, ergonomics, and style.
Using the NewTek Flex Control Panel for TriCaster is quite straightforward. First, connect the panel to your network via NDI. Once connected, you can easily take control of any compatible video switcher on the network. For video and audio mixing, simply use the intuitive layout that's mapped to the Video Mix Engine user interface. You can also manage PTZ control and talkback right from the panel. When it comes to audio I/O, just plug in your external sources, and the panel will expand the on - board I/O of your TriCaster. As for maintenance, keep the panel clean and free from dust. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. If you notice any issues with the connectivity or controls, check the network settings and make sure all cables are properly plugged in. That's all you need to know to get the most out of your NewTek Flex Control Panel.
