As mentioned described in previous chapterspages, Event Presets are a very powerful and flexible way to extend a Recording recording workflow. But it is not only possible to trigger single Events. , Event Presets can be used to execute different tasks at once within one single Recording Event. For instance, an Event can trigger a recording on a dedicated Blackmagic Design HyperDeck, switch a source Source on an AJA KUMO and execute a Bash Script. This chapter page describes the steps to create set up workflow of such an Event. Preset
Configuration Panel
As always, the starting point is the Just Control Configuration panel. Once opened, select the just:in linux Device, and switch to the “Events” tab, and verify that then make sure the “Devices” sub-tab is selected.

First , Event Devices have to be created, so therefore let’s create an AJA KUMO, BMD HyperDeck and a Bash Script Device (for a detailed explanation about how to create Event Devices, please refer to previous chapterstake a look at previous pages).

In the next step select the Bash code according Shell Script Device and press the “Add” button again. Now adjust the Bash code accordingly to your needs.
...
We’re almost done. Finally , set an Event Preset name and click on use the “Finish” button to save the Event Preset.
...
Let’s test this new Event Preset. Switch back to the main Just Control user interface and set this new Event as a “ Start Recording” Event Preset within the Channel Inspector and start the Recording recording process.
...
The Start Recording Event executes both all three parts of the Event Preset. It switches the Source to for the Destination “4” on at the AJA KUMO Router, it starts recording on the given HyperDeck and it creates a text file on the Mac's Desktop.log file at the home directory of the just:in user at the just:in linux server.
