A "manual" rotation is one in which you simply choose to use a regular "Playlist" as your rotation. You can assign a singer to any song, and you are free to arrange the rotation in any way you wish:
Pros & Cons
Pros:
- multiple songs per singer
- insert yourself in a few places
- insert "ShowScreen Songs" into the cue
- filler music that has no singer
- Total control over the your rotation playlist
Cons:
- new singer songs are added to the end of the playlist in whatever order they come in (not automatic interleave)
- broken: (to be fixed)
- singers deleting songs from wtkJams or web
- wtkJams view of the Rotation (empty)
- to investigate: switchable songs (this may not be possible)
How To
- Pick or make a new Playlist
- Name it something you'll remember, like "Manual Rotation"
- Right click it and pick "Use for Manual Rotation"
- Show the "Singer" sort column. Learn how to hide / show sort columns.
- You can now assign a singer to a song, or let singers use wtkJams
- to drag-reorder WITHIN a singer, drag a singer's song and drop it on TOP of a different song by the SAME singer, holding down the OPTION / ALT key
