Karaoki is great, but fixed rotation do not works as it’s suppose to. It allows to jump to the first position a singer that request a song in the last minute (while countdown is running), leaving the actual singer with the microphone on hand. Also, it allows to have the screen full of ADD A TRACK OR YOU WILL BE SKIPPED messages instead of remove from rotation any singer that reach the second position in the list without a song to sing. If you are the singer with the #6 position, your name will not be displayed on the screen, instead you will see 5 lines with ADD A TRACK OR YOU WILL BE SKIPPED messages. Your track will start without your knowledge.
Hello Luis, can you elaborate a bit more regarding a singer with a request at the last minute? If it’s the current singer, you can double click their name in the rotation list and re-order their songs with drag and drop (or pull them out of rotation, or add songs from their history etc). You can also of course drag and drop singer in the rotation list into any order – or right click and “Send to top”.
What happens with fixed rotation, if you click LOAD NEXT SINGER (which is the only way you should load/play songs from the rotation list) it loads and plays the top track – after 15 seconds the singer is then dropped to the bottom of the rotation list, with their next song in their personal singer queue displayed. We only drop them down after 15 seconds, so in the event the singer wants to swap songs on the fly you can double click their name – and select a different song from their cue to load/play with load next singer.
Also, great news: You can easily turn off the “add a track or you will be skipped” message. You can set it up so Karaoki ONLY shows singers with songs in their queue. Right click in the rotation list, click on Rotation Options – from this pane select “QUEUED ONLY” – now Karaoki won’t display singers without songs in their queue! That should help!
