AV Technology has selected NewTek TriCaster® TC1 multi-camera integrated live production system as a Best of Show Award honoree at InfoComm 2017. This adds to a string of Best-of-Show and Best-in-Category awards that TriCaster TC1 has accumulated at tradeshows and from various publications since taking three such awards at NABShow 2017 immediately after release in April.
“NewTek’s TriCaster TC1 is one of the most flexible video production systems on the market. 16 inputs, 2160p60 resolution, and IP network flexibility put this product on a different level than the competition. NewTek’s NDI™ technology is a huge change in video production workflows, and the incorporation of both NDI and Skype natively in the TC1 platform are outstanding values at this price point,” the AV Technology show judge said of the product.
