NewTek TriCaster TC1 and NDI Rock!
By Jamie G
Every year downtown Cleveland’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame welcomes over a half-million visitors to their museum and reaches even more through it’s social media presence. NewTek has helped made this possible. The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame’s facility is powered by the TriCaster TC1 and NC1 I/O. With NewTek’s revolutionary video production system the facility is able to expand it’s video content.
The Rock and Roll Hall of fame provides their fans with a wide range of programs and events such as concerts, interviews, and informational programs, so they are producing a lot of content. The new SiriusXM Studio and their NewTek video production system are able to get out all their content easily.
Sam Avellone, Director or Sales at NPI Audio Visual Solutions in Cleveland, has helped design and install the video production studio and control room at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame facility.
“The TC1 makes it all happen, It’s the perfect tool. It’s called the TriCaster because it switches, records and web streams simultaneously. TriCaster is the only product on the market that does all three things at the same time in one chassis.

When designing the new control facility they needed something to produce, record and disseminate content from any location inside the museum and anywhere on the museum grounds. With such huge grounds, NDI Technology was able to make that possible. According to Avellone, NDI technology has revolutionized the production world, saving time, money, and personnel.
“The whole building is tied together in a platform called NDI. NDI is basically video-over-IP, which NewTek developed a couple of years ago. Now, it’s a protocol in the industry. I use the phrase, ‘if you’re not using NDI, you’re a dinosaur,’ because video-over-IP is what makes this whole set-up happen. With NDI, we can go anywhere in the complex with a camera and plug into a network jack and send the signal from that camera to the new control room where it can be simulcast or web streamed.”

With NDI Technology, the new SiriusXM studio and control room, and their NewTek setup, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame will be able to tell their story and reach even more people they have in the past. Rock and Roll will never die.
