Videography

"But the moment I took a close look at TriCaster at NAB 2008 and then had one in my own studio, I immediately recognized the need for the product and now understand why NewTek sells as many units as it can produce. And one more thing: it is fun. I had forgotten what live production is all about and it felt as enchanted as no doubt those sixth graders in Florida felt at their first exposure to production."

Technologies for Worship

Thanks to the combination of today’s powerful PC’s and some refreshingly unconventional wisdom of a band of folks in San Antonio, TX, ministries of almost any size have the option of investing in a totally integrated turnkey solution for their video switching/projection, streaming, digital editing, and recording needs: the NewTek TriCaster BROADCAST ($11,995).

Videomaker

Video professionals producing both live and recorded shows for corporate, educational, government, worship and sporting events will want to look very closely at the TriCaster STUDIO. It is also a good fit for community television and even small and mid market broadcasters. Wayne's World would have, sadly, looked more like Entertainment Tonight had the STUDIO been handy.

NewTek’s TriCaster STUDIO is a powerful hardware device that packs everything you’d find in a television production truck or studio, into a small box, about the size of a standard field monitor. The most attractive item is the price: you won’t be paying hundreds of thousands of dollars to get professional quality HD and SD video production, both live and taped...

My first reaction: this is a terrific product that would appeal to a very limited market, but after talking with NewTek and trying the product myself, I’m convinced its ease of use, low price and truckload of features will open this technology to new groups of professionals and non-professionals...

NewTek's TriCaster first caught my eye as I was browsing through the latest batch of glossy magazines to land on my desk. At first glance, it resembled a number of other solutions that have appeared over the past few years. Upon closer inspection, however, I saw that it combined both a live video-production suite and a powerful encoder into a portable package...

DIGITAL Post Production

For a while, streaming live events seemed to be dead. It was either too expensive, or too difficult to get the live event from the production switcher to the encoding unit and finally to the website for the world to see. TriCaster makes streaming your program live a breeze...

I am very impressed with what the TriCaster has to offer. For live remote productions this small unit is designed for easy set up and portability. I feel very confident that church groups, student productions (both high school and college), corporate media, and others will be able to get just the results they want with little to no headaches. What the Video Toaster did for the 90s, the TriCaster is doing for this decade...

NewTek has put together an incredibly powerful little package at an almost unbelievable price point. The live switching alone is probably worth the price of admission, but when you throw in video capture and editing, all in a portable form factor, you’ve got an incredibly useful tool at your disposal...

For years any fool with a guitar and a PC has been able to make a CD, and now that same fool can pick up a cheap video camera and produce an award-winning documentary for just a few thousand bucks. Until now, though, live TV production has remained the domain of professional studios...
