The NewTek TriCaster 460 Advanced now ships with Advanced Edition Software, TriCaster 460 Advanced brings new value to the popular standard TriCaster 460, integrating more than 100 additional video production capabilities compared to the original system platform at no additional cost. TriCaster 460 Advanced allows you to simultaneously broadcast, stream, project, and record live in any mission critical production environment. Combining professional integration with comprehensive multi-camera production capabilities in a compact turnkey system scaled for mid-range mobile and studio productions, TriCaster 460 provides everything needed to produce network-quality live programming and on-demand video content from any location. The eight-input switcher makes it easy to switch between four baseband HD-SDI, analog I/O, and up to eight NDI video sources, mix audio, add graphics and titles, and advanced effects like virtual sets and animated transitions. Using the same intuitive and full features as the rest of the TriCaster Advanced Edition, the TriCaster 460 Advanced is suited for new users and seasoned pros. Video professionals, production crews, and multimedia teams don’t have to confine their productions to the studio or sacrifice capability for mobility that provides professional integration and comprehensive multi-camera production capabilities.

Ready for IP-and Beyond

Take your productions to unprecedented levels. With TriCaster Advanced Edition software now included, TriCaster 460 Advanced offer more than 100 additional video production tools and capabilities compared to their original system platforms-at no additional cost.

Professional Results

Designed to deliver maximum impact with a minimal footprint, TriCaster 460 Advanced are ideal for producers who need to create high-end video smoother, faster, and easier.

Turnkey Solution

Access up to 8 live video sources from any combination of compatible systems, devices, and software. Roll full-length video packages or short b-roll clips. Present live titles, graphics, and animated effects. And craft sophisticated compositions and elaborate virtual set scenes that captivate your audience.

Customizable Workflow

Scale to fit your show. Connect cameras directly or expand your available live sources over IP. Flex your workspace and control to suit a single operator or a small team. And output to one or multiple destinations simultaneously—on site or across the network.

Small Footprint

Mountains of gear are a thing of the past. Make the most of just 2RU of rack space in a flightpack or tight space, and gain a freedom of movement that's just not possible with racks of individual components pieced together.

Automation

Take it easier. Record common moves with macros, and expand production possibilities while reducing on-air mistakes. Streamline sequences with a single action when they’re too complicated to execute live. Use MIDI control, on-camera hotspots, and PTZ cameras to make smaller productions look like larger shows.

Social Sharing

Live stream to multiple destinations simultaneously, including Facebook Live, Microsoft Azure, Periscope, Twitch, Ustream, and YouTube Live to reach your audience where they watch. And share media in real time to your favorite social networks, like Facebook, Imgur, LinkedIn, Twitter, Vimeo, YouTube, and more.
