Notes Module

The Notes Module allows the user to see the upcoming notes, scripts and Live Event assets scheduled in the station log. Any note/script can be clicked on and read as needed. The notes window follows the progression of the station log. As an event with a note/script is played, the window is updated. The Notes Module can be saved to the user’s layout. Notes are attached to events in GSelector and sent to Zetta during a log load from GSelector. Scripts are added to an assets Metadata card using the Script tab. Notes are displayed with two different icons  for Song notes and for Link notes. Scripts are displayed in the Log with 4 different icons; Asset with Script , Live Event , Live Event with Confirmation and Live Event Marked as Read . Notes can have internet-linked items in the note to open an internet site using the default internet browser. Notes and Scripts can also have images (.jpg).

An Asset can be auditioned from the Notes module by clicking a desired play action or play position from the progress bar right-click menu.
