XStudio 3172

Execute Function Directive (CR)

The Execute Function directive is used to execute an XStudio Action at a specific log time. This

directive is valid for Satellite and Automation modes only; it is ignored in all other modes.

Play Cart Directive (PC)

The Play Cart directive is used to play a specific audio item (cart) at the directive log time. It is valid

only in Satellite mode; in all other modes, the directive is treated as though it is a normal cart record on

the log and played in sequence with other carts in a non-time-specific way.

Time Offset Directive Key (:xx)

The Time Offset directive key is used to make a directive's execution (activation) time something other

than an exact hour and minute. If you have a directive scheduled at 2:42 PM on the log and want it to

be activated at 2:42:30 PM, enter the colon character in the first character of the directive Description

field, followed by the two-digit value for the number of seconds to "offset" from the minute, i.e., enter

:30 followed by whatever description you wish. The time offset value must be two digits following the

colon or your results will be unpredictable.

Time Approximate Directive Key (~)

The Time Approximate directive key is intended for use in Satellite mode only, as a way of

making load directive types (Load Required and Load Optional) sequence-oriented rather than time-

driven. For more information on how to use time approximate directives in Satellite mode, see the

topic Satellite Programming - Special Events.

Cast-Off Directive Key ($)

The Cast-Off directive key is used in XStudio to perform what is known as a "soft sync". When the

directive is activated, it causes XStudio to "cast-off" or skip over unplayed audio items on the log,

setting the Next-To-Play item as the first audio item (cart) following the directive. When the currently

playing cart reaches EOM (Aux Mark), the audio item immediately following the directive is played. The

effect is to synchronize log playback close to the directive time, a technique that keeps XStudio close

to real time in terms of program execution.

When a directive containing the Cast-Off key is executed and the XStudio Next-

To-Play item on the log is already beyond the log time of the directive, the Cast-

Off key is ignored.

To create a Cast-Off key, enter a "$" (dollar sign) as the very first character of the directive's

Description field.

The Cast-Off directive key is valid in Satellite and Automation modes only and is ignored in all other

modes.

Current Voice Directive Key ($)

The Current Voice directive key is used in combination with the Load Window directive to set the

current announcer voice value. See the Load Window directive description for details on using this key.

The Current Voice directive key is valid in all modes of operation.
