Live Set, Aura, Mirage, what?

:help:

Sorry if this is not the right forum but I seem to be having trouble figuring out where to go for an answer on this question...

I purchased a TriCaster Studio. I want to make a couple of custome virtual sets/Live sets or what ever they are called. Basically I need something like a picture in picture and I have not come across anything that will work for what I need.

From reading through posts here, it seems that you need Aura or Mirage to build these? Is that the only way? If so, why can you not get either of these pieces of software anywhere?

What is the deal here? You spend thousands on equipment like this and you can't take full advantage of it? What is the business model here? I am very confused. Should I have purchased the VT product instead?

Here is the LiveSet forum;

As for software, you can use Lightwave with the LiveSet plug-in to do this. Aura comes bundled with VT[5] and Mirage is no longer available.

Take care,

Hi, thanks for the reply. Just to be clear, you are saying that if I buy this product:

I can build live sets? Where do you get the LiveSet plug-in?

Thanks again.

Yes.
Once you register your copy of LW, you will gain access to the Lightwave LiveSet Generator under the bonus content.

Take care,

Great. Thanks again!
