NewTek Inc. has announced the TriCaster Upgrade Guarantee Program, whereby customers can trade up any TriCaster™ portable live production system purchased between January 15 and December 23, 2009, for full purchase price credit toward a TriCaster, model XD300, that is being previewed at IBC2009. TriCaster, model XD300, is scheduled to ship late Q4 2009. With TriCaster, anyone can simultaneously produce, live stream, broadcast, and project a network-style production. A single operator or small team can produce a live show while switching between as many as six cameras with two DDRs, multi-channel effects, and NewTek's proprietary LiveSet™ virtual sets. TriCaster is used by broadcasters, sports organizations, schools, government agencies and others to provide a new level of extended programming and content to their audiences. To be eligible for the upgrade, a TriCaster must be purchased from a NewTek Elite Partner or Authorized Reseller by December 23, 2009. The upgrade requires a validated coupon, as well as the registered TriCaster serial number and verified proof of purchase. Units must be returned to the reseller that initiated the original sale in good working condition with all original packaging and manuals. This program is not retroactive and cannot be combined with any other offers. This program ends December 31, 2009.
