Zira Music
Zira Music: Getting Started
High quality music for your server: invite the bot, play your first song, and unlock the web player.
Zira Music brings high quality music playback to your server, with playlists, liked songs, and a full web player in the Zira dashboard.
Inviting Zira Music#
There are two Zira Music bots, so busy servers can run music in two channels at once. Invite either (or both) from the Zira dashboard: open your server, pick Player under Zira Music, and click the invite button.
Already have Zira in your server? The dashboard's Zira Music pages light up as soon as the music bot joins. If you only have Zira Music, add Zira to unlock the dashboard.
Playing music#
Join a voice channel and use /play with a song name. Zira Music searches the full high quality catalog first, new releases included; pick a result and it starts playing right away, even if we have never played that song before.
Useful commands:
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/play | Search and play a song |
/queue | See what's coming up |
/skip | Vote to skip (DJs skip instantly) |
/pause, /resume | Pause and resume |
/volume | Set the volume (above 100% needs Premium) |
/like | Save the current song to your Liked Songs |
/filter | Audio filters like bass boost and nightcore (Premium) |
/nonstop | 24/7 music that never leaves the channel (Premium) |
Every now playing message has a heart button: click it and the song lands in your personal Liked Songs playlist.
The web player#
Open your server in the dashboard and pick Player under Zira Music. From your browser you can:
- See what's playing with live progress
- Search the library and queue songs without typing commands
- Pause, skip, shuffle, loop, and set the volume
- Reorder or remove queued songs
- Start and stop 24/7 non-stop mode (Premium)
DJ roles and control#
By default anyone can control the music, and skipping is by vote. In Music Settings on the dashboard (or /config) you can:
- Add DJ roles: DJs skip instantly and can force join/leave/stop
- Turn on DJ-only mode so only DJs control playback
- Set the vote-skip threshold and the default volume
- Choose a fixed channel for now playing messages, or turn them off
Each Zira Music bot keeps its own settings. If you run both music bots, configure each one separately: use its tab on the dashboard, or run /config on that bot. Your playlists and Liked Songs are shared, so they work with every Zira Music bot.
