Welcome < Zetta Commands

Zetta Commands

Zetta® Commands are used when configuring commands for external devices, such as special keyboards and cards, to send and receive keyboard strokes, GPIO events and Cue Point events to commonly used commands in Zetta. These events can also be placed in Logs, Clocks, Recorder Logs, Recorder Clocks and Macros as Execute Command Control Events. See Adding GPIO Devices section of this guide for more information on these GPIO devices. A Default System Keyboard Mappings has been created, which represents preset mappings from keyboard key strokes to actions in Zetta. This topic covers all the available Zetta commands and a description of the functionality it performs. The Comments column shows which mappings allow the Execute Command to be defined.

Execute Commands

The following Execute Commands can be added to a GPIO Input Trigger Mapping (GPI), Output Event Mapping (GPO) a Keyboard Mapping or a Cue Point mapping in the Command Mappings tab of the System Configuration window and in the Shifts tab of a Station or Background Recorder Configuration window. They can also be added as and Execute Command in a Log, Clock or Macro and Cue Points in the Audio tab of the Metadata card of an asset.

 

Audition Commands

The Audition Commands can be used with the Audition Module and the Audition Microbar to audition assets from the Logs, Library, Hot Keys, Stacks and On-Air modules within Zetta. The following commands can be configured in the Command Mappings to control the Auditioning of assets in Zetta using a keyboard or GPIO device. See the Auditioning tab of the Preferences Configuration for additional details on configuring marking point controls for the Audition context menu.

Hot Keys Commands

All these commands require that the Hot Keys module be open. HotKeys.OpenBank will open the requested Hot Keys bank in an existing hot keys window.

Some of the Hot Keys commands require the Play Stream be defined in the Module Stream field when using multiple Hot Keys modules. Enter the Stream Name to use into the Module Stream field. 

For Example: If two Hot Keys modules were open at the same time, one using the stream named A and the other using stream named B and a mapping was desired to start playing the Hot Keys module using stream A then the letter A would be placed in the Module Stream field for the mapping.

Leaving the Module Stream field blank will set the play stream to the default <Any Stream>.

MultiTrack.AutoScrub

Step (seconds)

AutoScrub will step the play marker by the specified number of seconds forward or back continually depending on the device used for the mapping. If Auto Scrubbing is started while stuttering is in progress, the play marker will jump seek to the next offset, stutter at that position for the seek interval, then jump again, stutter at the next position for the seek interval and so on. This will continue till the end or beginning of the audio is reached or is stopped (either by moving the scrub wheel to the center position or by using stop command). If the scrubbing wheel, of the device, is moved back to the center position while seeking, seeking will stop and regular stutter will continue in a loop in the current seek position. Stopping will stop both scrubbing and stuttering.

Station and Fade seconds

This command will fade all playing events for the selected station for the specified fade duration. FadeAll, fades what's playing but never re-queues that event, i.e. the faded out event is removed from the Sequencer queue & the On-Air module, and the next event is queued up.

GPI, GPO, Cue Point or Keyboard

Sequencer.Play.StopAll

Station

This command will stop all the playing events for the selected station. StopAll, unlike FadeAll, respects the "Requeue event if stopped" Station config setting, meaning if the event is stopped within that configurable threshold, that event will remain in the Sequencer queue (and hence the On-Air module). StopAll respects the 'Apply fadeout value on stop' Station config setting, so basically behaves as if you stopped the event(s) via the [Stop] button in the On-Air module - either stops the event immediately or fades it out.

ZPlayer Commands

The Z-Player commands require the play stream Short Name be defined in the Module Stream field when using multiple Z-Player modules. Enter the stream's Short Name to use in the Module Stream field. If the short name is not defined Zetta will use the ID instead.

For Example: If two Z-Player modules were open at the same time, one using the stream A and the other using stream B and a mapping was desired to start playing the Z-Player using stream A then the letter A would be placed in the Module Stream field for the mapping.

Leaving the Module Stream field blank will set the play stream to the default <Any Stream>.

GPI, GPO, Cue Point or Keyboard

ZPlayer.AutoScrub

Step (seconds)

Module Stream

AutoScrub will step the play marker by the specified number of seconds forward or back continually depending on the device used for the mapping. If Auto Scrubbing is started while stuttering is in progress, the play marker will jump seek to the next offset, stutter at that position for the seek interval, then jump again, stutter at the next position for the seek interval and so on. This will continue till the end or beginning of the audio is reached or is stopped (either by moving the scrub wheel to the center position or by using stop command). If the scrubbing wheel, of the device, is moved back to the center position while seeking, seeking will stop and regular stutter will continue in a loop in the current seek position. Stopping will stop both scrubbing and stuttering.

This command is designed to be used with a Jog/Shuttle wheel such as one of the JL Cooper devices supported in Zetta. GPI, GPO, Cue Point or Keyboard
