If you want control 3 zones independently then I think you’d need 3 devices (someone will correct me if I’m wrong). There’s a couple of options, search the forums for the following:

- Fibaro RDB controller
- Dresden FLS-PP-IP

There are also other solutions, all depends on what you’re trying to achieve. I have both and they work well. Both can be added to ST as things and will allow you to do what you need to do. Note that you will need a 12V power supply in addition to the LED strip.
