To set up different rotation categories like A, B, and C rotation in Live-Assist Mode, you need to create separate Track Groups for each rotation category and configure their scheduling strategies.

First, create your rotation track groups by going to Manage > Track Groups and setting up groups named "A Rotation", "B Rotation", and "C Rotation". Add your tracks to the appropriate groups based on how frequently you want them to play.

For each track group, you can set different Track Scheduling Strategies to control how tracks are selected:

• Smart Selection - Uses a weighted random algorithm where tracks played longer ago have a higher chance of being selected (ideal for maintaining proper rotation)
• Most Rested - Always selects the track that was played longest ago (ensures even rotation)
• Random - Selects tracks completely at random from the group

To use your rotation categories in scheduling, you can add them to either the Playout Pattern or Clocks:

Adding to Playout Pattern: Go to Manage > Playout Pattern and use the > button to add your rotation track groups (A Rotation, B Rotation, C Rotation) in your desired order. This creates a repeating pattern that PlayIt Live will use to fill time automatically.

Adding to Clocks: Go to Manage > Clocks to create hour templates. Add Track Group items to your clock and select your rotation categories. When editing each track group item, you can set the specific scheduling strategy and configure whether tracks should segue. Schedule these clocks to specific hours using Manage > Clock Schedule.

You can also assign different colours and icons to each rotation category to make them easily identifiable in the playout log, and set priorities to determine which group's formatting appears when tracks belong to multiple groups.
