22.3.9 MACRO
The last button we will discuss offers spectacular convenience. TriCaster’s powerful
macro system is fully addressable from 8000CS. A macro can be assigned to any
button on the control surface in much the same manner as it can be assigned to a
keyboard button. The steps are as follows:
1. On TriCaster’s Live Desktop, open the Macro Configuration Editor.
2. Select the macro you wish to assign in the onscreen lister.
3. Click the mouse in the Listen field at bottom left.
4. Hold down the MACRO button and press a suitable button on the control
surface.
That’s it – you can close the Macro configuration Panel and test the result. To play
back the macro at any time, press the MACRO button along with the assigned key.
22.3.10 T-BAR ILLUMINATION
TriCaster 8000CS uses colorful illumination to provide feedback and status updates
your control surface selections and operations. The lighting schemes for both the
M/E and MAIN TRANSITION T-Bars reinforce the traditional button illumination in
a way that soon becomes instinctive and which provides unparalleled confidence in
use.
The following tables provide a color code for your convenience.
