NewTek has enabled its TriCaster 8000 live production and media publishing system with Avid’s Eucon protocol.
‘It’s our goal to provide our users with the flexibility to develop a workflow that is perfect for them,’ says NewTek CEO, Dr Andrew Cross. ‘Using Avid Eucon technology, we are able to provide complex secondary audio control – including fader volume, solo, mute, panning, and balance of audio sources – along with mixer presets and audio monitoring. It’s an ideal complement to a TriCaster system.’
Compact and portable enough to fit into any setup, the Artist Mix control surface can be used standalone or in tandem with the TriCaster 8000 control surface to provide operators with highly responsive control over fader levels and panning.
Eucon is Avid’s open, high-speed Ethernet control protocol that enables the Avid Artist Series and other Eucon-enabled Avid consoles and control surfaces to connect to and communicate with a variety of third-party creative audio and video software solutions. This tight integration enables engineers, editors, and mixers to take unprecedented hands-on control over a wide variety of features across multiple applications and workstations, resulting in increased efficiency and cost-effective workflow expansions. Eucon is currently supported by a wide cross section of Mac- and Windows-based applications.
The fruits of a new partnership, the news brings NewTek into a fold that already includes Adobe, Autodesk, Blackmagic Design, Digital Vision, and Steinberg.
