Two VU Meters are displayed when an analog Connection Type is set to a Mic option, with
individual knobs to control the Gain for each input channel (see Figure 193).
When the Connection Type is Line , the VU meter displays the levels for the two analog input
channels, controlled by a single Gain knob. Also, the Pan slider is replaced with a Balance
control.
Other connection Type selections and sources display a single VU meter with either two or four
level graphs controlled by a single Gain knob (Figure 194).
AUDIO LEVELS
TriCaster’s audio recordings will clip above +6dB. For this reason, levels higher than +6dB are
shown in red in the
VU meters .
Hint: An error message appears in the Status Bar above the main Program output monitor to
warn you if clipping occurs – see Section 6.5.1.
Levels above 0dB are drawn in orange. You can allow occasional peaks to range into this zone,
but generally try to maintain audio levels at or slightly below 0dB.
Note: TriCaster’s analog audio conforms to SMPTE RP-155. The maximum input/output level is
+24 dBu, nominal input level is +4 dBu (-20dB FS), and the sample rate is 96 kHz.
13.2 INTERNAL AUDIO
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 content
players (DDR, etc.) can be added to the output mix.
Separate sub-panels are provided to control audio added to TriCaster’s Program output mix by
the DDR and Sound media players.
