SOLO
Solo implementations and options vary widely in the audio industry, but broadly speaking, they provide
several very useful functions. TriCaster’s Solo feature offers remarkable flexibility without overly confusing
complexity.
Consider a few basic design concepts:

The Solo switch state has no impact on the audio mix (es) sent to other outputs.

Enabling Solo for a source sends its (after-fader) sound to the Headphones output, and removes all
other sources from that output.

TriCaster’s Solo feature is normally what it called ‘exclusive Solo’ (or ‘X-Or’ type). This means that
enabling Solo for a given source disables all other Solo buttons.

It is possible to use what is called ‘Solo latch’, ganging multiple sources for Solo output. Hold down
the Ctrl key and click additional Solo buttons to add or remove their respective audio contributions
from the latched Solo group.

OURCE
It can be very useful to be able to preview one or more audio sources, doing so without allowing the test
sound to be audible on Program output. Typically, this need arises in connection with testing microphones
or other audio sources that will be used in the production.
To audition an audio source in this manner:
1. First Mute the source, removing it from primary outputs.
2. Then enable Solo to hear it on the Headphones output.
SECTION 15.6
INTERNAL SOURCES
Besides external audio sources, sounds played from TriCaster’s internal storage volumes (including
removable media such as external hard drives or ‘thumb’ drives) via the Media Players (DDRs, etc.) can be
added to the output mix.
15.6.1
MEDIA PLAYERS
Video and audio-only files in DDR 1 and 2 playlists along with audio files in the Sounds player may contain
one or more audio channels. At most, Media Players output the first four audio channels of multiple channels
– additional embedded channels are ignored. Other options and controls in these sub-panels are similar to
those provided for external audio sources.
15.6.2
EFFECTS (TRANSITIONS)
This control group governs the sound embedded in Animation Store Transitions.
