Browsing around on the web you'd think that the biggest new feature of the 850 Extreme is the Apple AirPlay support. Now don't get me wrong AirPlay is cool but the Extreme can record 8 streams of HD at once! While doing everything else it does. I think this is a great feature. You can obviously use it to record camera isos for posting later or as backups. But think about it, you can record

Pre-NAB rumors were that NewTek was going to announce a new four input instant replay unit. But instead we are going to get a 10 channel replay server! The 3Play 820. I mourn the 4Play that never was. :) Ten channels translates to 8 inputs and 2 independent outputs all in a 4U rack mount that looks a lot like the TriCaster 850. Some of the new features: Record up to eight inputs Two outputs so

The other day I needed a few HD animated backgrounds for a project and while I've got hundreds of SD backgrounds from Digital Juice and 12 Inch Designs but I didn't have any in HD. So I fired up Google and went searching and I found a cool package and it's cheap! They're perfect for my TriCaster '850. I thought the playback speed was a little,ok a lot, too high on some of the clips but

The TriCaster TCXD850 is NewTek's biggest and baddest product ever. The latest addition to the TriCaster line is also the heir to their premier production product - the recently discontinued VT[5]. The '850 shipped in December and the rev 2 software that was released at the end of January brings the switcher up to 24 inputs.That's eight cameras inputs, eight 'Virtual Inputs' (sort of M/E buses),

The first revision of the TCXD850 software is available for download now from NewTek.  To say this is a major update is to understate the wholesale change in work flow involved. The original release was very similar to the interface of the TCXD300 but with this new release NewTek has adopted a more industry standard work flow. This is mostly to accommodate the 850CS control surface by allowing

Been busy and there hasn't been much to blog about. But we finally got our demo TCXD 850! Months late but it's finally here. NewTek is having the machines built by an outside vendor and there have apparently been teething pains in working out that relationship so machine are rolling out slowly. I shot my first basketball game with it Friday night and I liked it a lot. The TCXD300 was never my
