As you’d expect given the different control labels, in certain cases LC-11’s buttons and controls 
will behave differently depending on which model is connected. 
 
For example - TriCaster Broadcast has just one Overlay channel, while TCXD models have two; 
TriCaster TCXD300 has one DDR, while TCXD850 has two, and so on.  Figure 4 illustrates LC-11 in 
its various configurations.  

Note: The labels for some buttons list secondary functions. For example, the Net 1 button in the 
LIVE and PREVIEW rows in Figure 5 shows V6 (for Virtual Input 6) as a secondary option.  Holding 
down ALT along with a button activates its alternate assignment. 

 * Your LC-11 may ship with multiple button cap sets.  To change button caps to match the 
illustrations above, pry the installed cap off 

gently

 using a thin, flat bladed screwdriver (or similar 

implement), then firmly press the new cap into place.

SWITCHER SECTION 

 

Figure 5 - LC-11 Switcher section 

The largest of the three main sections of the LC-11 control surface corresponds to your NewTek 
live production system’s Switcher, as you can see in Figure 5.

SELECTING SWITCHER SOURCES 

TRICASTER 

The Switcher panel of most TriCaster models corresponds quite closely to the 
LC-11.  The exception is the base model, which lacks the upper (Effects) row of 
selection buttons. For this reason, the upper row of buttons in LC-11’s Switcher 
section is functional only when connected to PRO, Studio, Broadcast and TCXD 
model TriCasters.
