Help Me With My Rotations
Fix poor rotation patterns the right way: set up a natural rotation first and use Flip only in rare cases.

I’ve looked at some of my category rotation prediction charts and some of mine suck – we’re talking lines straight down with no diagonal period. Yikes! So generally speaking, which is better for rotation correction?
Use Flip only in the most rare of circumstances. Example: you have a Power Current category with 4 songs in it and you schedule 1 an hour 24-hours a day. The same song(s) would come up in same hour every day….you don’t want 3 songs in the category, you don’t want 5…you absolutely want 4, no more, no less. But 4 gives a terrible rotation…so, you tell M1 to Flip 1. Each time it loads a new/empty log to schedule it flips the song in Power Current that’s at the top of the stack. It starts Monday with song #1, Tuesday with song #2, Wednesday with song #3.
The best thing to do, always, is to set-up your Categories with a proper and acceptable ‘natural’ rotation pattern. The video in Rotation Prediction – Average Turnover Chart shows how to do that.
