NewTek TimeWarp™ is an external replay controller for the
NewTek family of TriCaster™ products and
VT[5]. TimeWarp is an
optional controller surface that provides clip selection,
marking and playback at various speeds. This $995 USB-connected
tabletop controller gives a dedicated operator the power that
previously only a large, mobile production crew wielded. Once
the slo-mo operator marks beginning and end segments of the
chosen input, they are instantly available for replay.

Put Time in your hands.
Fast-paced action deserves a second look. Or, a third.
NewTek TimeWarp™ replay controller extends the live production
capabilities of TriCaster by providing a dedicated operator for
video playback. Enjoy the freedom of instant replay, while you
continue recording Program output.
TimeWarp will elevate your sports and event production with
instant replay and beautiful slow motion.
When you edit, you are used to marking in and out points,
right? Now do that with your live production. As TriCaster
records the event, you can bracket a moment in time, and send
that clip to DDR, awaiting the director’s touch for playback.
Choose a playback speed and deliver slow motion every time.
