You can set up different music rotations for breakfast, daytime, and evening shows using Clocks and Track Groups combined with the Clock Schedule feature. This allows you to create tailored programming for each daypart with specific music content and scheduling behaviours.

Start by creating different Track Groups for each show period at Manage > Track Groups. For example, create groups like "Breakfast Hits", "Daytime Favourites", and "Evening Classics", then populate them with appropriate music for each time period. You might include more energetic, upbeat tracks for breakfast and more relaxed content for evening shows.

Next, create separate Clocks for each daypart at Manage > Clocks. Build your breakfast clock with breakfast track groups and morning-specific jingles, your daytime clock with different track groups and content, and your evening clock with appropriate evening programming elements. Each clock serves as an hour-long template that defines how that hour should sound.

Finally, schedule these clocks using Manage > Schedule Clocks. Assign your breakfast clock to morning hours (for example, 6 AM to 10 AM), your daytime clock to midday hours (10 AM to 6 PM), and your evening clock to evening hours (6 PM onwards). The clock schedule will automatically use the appropriate clock template for each hour, ensuring your breakfast show has different music rotation than your evening programming.

For advanced control, you can also use Daypart Separation Playout Policies (requires Advanced Scheduling module) to prevent the same tracks from repeating within specific dayparts like "Breakfast" or "Drive" for a set number of days, ensuring regular listeners don't hear the same songs during their usual listening times.
