The TriCaster Flex Control Panel is designed to provide precise control over live video switching. Operators can switch between multiple video sources using the dedicated T-bar, which allows for smooth transitions between cameras, media inputs, and NDI feeds. Its intuitive layout makes it perfect for broadcast studios, live event productions, and corporate streaming, ensuring fast, reliable switching during real-time broadcasts.

Supporting NDI (Network Device Interface) technology, the Flex Control Panel allows for IP-based video control, reducing the need for complex cabling. Operators can control NDI-enabled cameras and devices over a standard Ethernet network, making it ideal for remote production environments or distributed multi-camera setups. This seamless NDI integration enhances flexibility and scalability in modern production workflows.

The Flex Control Panel features dedicated controls for managing graphics overlays, including lower thirds, titles, logos, and animations. These tools are critical for adding professional-looking visuals to live broadcasts, making the system perfect for news, sports, virtual events, and corporate presentations. The ability to add graphics in real-time keeps viewers engaged and elevates production quality.

With its integrated audio mixing section, the Flex Control Panel offers real-time control over multiple audio sources. Operators can manage audio levels, mute/unmute channels, and balance audio inputs, ensuring high-quality sound for live broadcasts or recordings. This feature is particularly valuable for productions that require a high degree of audio precision, such as concerts, corporate events, and live streams.

The macro buttons on the TriCaster Flex Control Panel can be customized to automate repetitive tasks, making it easier to manage complex workflows. Operators can trigger sequences of actions, such as switching between cameras, applying graphics, or adjusting audio, with a single button press. This feature is perfect for high-pressure environments where speed and efficiency are critical.

The built-in tally light support ensures that camera operators and talent are always aware of which camera is live, enhancing coordination in multi-camera setups. This feature is essential for smooth communication and professional camera management in live productions.

The compact, ergonomic design of the Flex Control Panel makes it easy to use in both studio environments and mobile production units. Its layout is optimized for quick, efficient operation, minimizing operator fatigue during long broadcasts or complex productions. The control panel is designed to fit seamlessly into any production setup, whether on location or in a broadcast control room.

The Flex Control Panel integrates fully with Vizrt TriCaster systems, providing synchronized control over video switching, graphics, and audio mixing. This deep integration ensures a smooth production workflow and makes it easy to manage all aspects of a live broadcast from a single interface, enhancing overall productivity.

The Vizrt TriCaster Flex Control Panel is perfect for broadcast professionals, live event producers, sports broadcasters, corporate AV teams, and content creators who need precise, professional-grade control over live production workflows. Its combination of video switching, real-time graphics, audio mixing, and NDI integration makes it an essential tool for producing high-quality content in multi-camera live productions, virtual events, and IP-based streaming environments.
