Vizrt TriCaster Vizion Tower 16 & Flex Control Panel Bundle

Professional Live Production Switcher + Hands-On Control

TriCaster® Vizion Tower 16 is built for sophisticated multi-camera productions where reliability, speed, and creative control matter. Trusted across broadcasting, sports networks, and live event production, this system combines powerful production tools with AI-enabled capabilities to help teams create polished live content efficiently.

With up to 44 simultaneous live video inputs (including resolution-independent NDI® IP sources), UHD support up to 2160p at 60fps, and flexible SDI I/O (up to 16 configurable ports depending on hardware version), TriCaster Vizion Tower 16 is designed for modern hybrid workflows. The included Flex Control Panel adds tactile, operator-friendly control for PTZ, audio connections, audio/video mixing, and talkback—ideal for studios, venues, and remote productions connected with NDI®.

This bundle also includes a Viz Flowics Basic Plan (4 users), enabling cloud-based graphics creation and data-driven on-air visuals rendered locally via TriCaster Live Link for streamlined, professional graphics delivery.
