SpeedEDIT 2
Blazing-Fast Video Editor

NewTek SpeedEDIT™ 2 is a resolution-independent video editor designed to work quickly and efficiently on any video project, from high definition (HD) to standard definition (SD) to Web. SpeedEDIT streamlines the editing process by eliminating unnecessary steps. All editing functions are performed directly on native clips, avoiding the need to transcode or pre-trim content. SpeedEDIT 2 further accelerates the editing process by dynamically linking Storyboard and Timeline, providing the ability to perform many common functions in fewer steps. Ripple edits, clip replacement, segment repositioning, 3D video rotation, color correction, animated titles and image sequence playback are just a few of the everyday tasks that SpeedEDIT 2 performs faster than any other professional editor.

SpeedEDIT 2 works smoothly and natively with MPEG-2, AVI, QuickTime® and most popular video formats in both HD or SD. Enjoy real-time, full resolution on-screen HD previews with IEEE 1394 (FireWire®) output to camera or deck.

Any broadcast, DVD or Web production can benefit from the clean design, streamlined operation, and pristine output offered in SpeedEDIT 2.

High definition (HD), live, multi-camera video production no longer exists only in the realm of big television studios or giant production trucks with banks of monitors, miles of cables, tape machines, video recorders, video effects generators, titling stations, audio mixers and more. Today, all of that power, quality and potential exists in a 20-pound box small enough to fit in a backpack with the flexibility for one person or a small team to deliver network-quality video. TriCaster™ TCXD300 makes it possible for you to broadcast, project, live stream or record full HD programming. 

TriCaster TCXD300 is a high definition, network-quality portable live production solution. In one small box you gain multi-channel HD switching, HD network-style virtual sets, HD titling, HD digital disk recording, audio mixing, HD editing, full HD streaming and more.

TriCaster™ TCXD300 Interface

The TriCaster™ TCXD300 interface is set up much like the control room found in a live television truck. You have quick and easy access to virtual monitors and your live production tools, virtual sets, titling system, editing program, recording and streaming options and much more. 

 

 

1) LIVE PRODUCTION provides control of an entire multi-channel HD production. Connect up to three HD or standard definition (SD) cameras, digital or analog audio, and go live with simultaneous output to video, projector and the Web. 

2) LIVE VIRTUAL SETS in HD give you the flexibility of expansive, professional sets even though your location may have limited space. With live, multi-camera smooth zooming, show your talent in a network-style studio without the need for a camera operator or expensive motion control system. Sets include double box effects with options for stand-up and one or two presenters. 

3) ON-SCREEN MONITORS let you select shots with confidence. Displaying cameras, clips and iVGA™ networked computer inputs, TriCaster TCXD300 allows you to send all monitors to a second display, and enlarge your workspace. 

4) PREVIEW AND PROGRAM MONITORS let you display titles or a transition on-screen, while showing what source is up next. Innovative color Waveform Monitors and Vectorscopes ensure perfect signal quality for your live production. 

5) ADVANCED VIDEO SWITCHER gives you unprecedented control over all inputs. Select a live output on Preview, and use either the on-screen T-bar or the optional LiveControl™ LC-11 hardware to transition easily from one source to another. Versatile production tools such as Virtual Inputs and dual downstream keys provide the ability to easily create dynamic overlays and graphics. 

6) VIDEO TRANSITIONS add interest and impact to your live production. Use any of the 200-plus HD broadcast-quality effects to transition from one source to another and fly titles and inserts on and off screen. 

7) LIVE TITLES give you a broadcast look with graphics, titles and animated overlays on top of your live video. Lock a title or bug to a camera or virtual input and set the in and out motion for each. 

8 ) ONE-BUTTON INTERNET STREAMING allows you to use Adobe® Flash® or Windows Media® to deliver a live stream directly to the Web, in 720p HD and other streaming profiles with simultaneous archive for later viewing. ONE BUTTON RECORDING captures your live production as a full HD resolution video file. 

9) AUDIO MIXING gives you complete control over microphones, line inputs and clip playback levels, you can also adjust input trim levels for the best possible audio. In addition, TriCaster TCXD300 provides both AES and embedded digital audio for pristine sound. 

10) DDR allows you to easily add video clips to your production, as well as auto-insert clips captured during a live event for immediate playback. HD and SD resolutions are supported in a variety of popular file formats. 

11) VIRTUAL INPUTS provide five customized inputs to configure virtual sets, layer live elements, assign titles, set upstream picture-in-picture elements and much more. These settings can be used as templates for easy creation of other mix effects and are instantly available in the playlist along the left.
