About this recording:
The presenation was recorded by ourselves using a Livestream HD550 portable switcher loaded with the Studio 3.0 software. For controls the Livestream Surface Core panel was used. The decision to record this presenation was made last minute just to try to see if we could pull it off. It turned out quite nicely and Alister's information is so high quality we decided to share it with you. Please note that audio is missing for the first half minute of the introduction.
