"CompuHost Computerized Karaoke Hosting Solution is a registered trademark of Invicion Software Solutions. And I am in no way affiliated with Invicion Software Solutions. Okay in this next clip I want to talk about the New Session button here on the top hand left. Also this a window for Rotation and Rotation Break Point, what is this? I'm going to talk a little bit right now about the New Session button. When you are close after a session and you open up your CompuHost program again, you're going to see the names from your last session. To start a new session you're just going to simply click on this button that says New Session. And once you do it will say Caution, all session data will be lost. Are you sure you want to start a new session? You just press yes and you'll see you have a brand new fresh slate to start putting some singers in. So I'm just going to just for the sake of the video, I'll just start putting a couple of singers in. And you'll see that their names are going in, and by doing so I can show you a little bit more about the rotation and the rotation break point which is a great, great feature. So you got some names up there, the people are coming in and you get your songs and you're going to start getting your singers ready. Rotation One, this is where you want to start this always at zero. The reason why this is at zero, because as you, you know start a show you might have ten, twenty singers ready to go. Rotation Break Point, what is this exactly? This is the amount of people that will see their names on the evaluation screen on all the tv?s and it will only work in the first rotation. Once you get into the second rotation, every name that's on here and the order that they're on will come down here in this Rotation screen here. So it's only on the first rotation. But what you could do is you could set the amount of singers you want to see or don't want to see. And this is a great way to add new singers into the rotation without someone feeling like they got jaded or pushed to the bottom because they won't see it. And this is a good way to add new people to the rotation. And it's as simple as that. I usually like to probably go, if I have twenty singers, I'll go about six singers is the average. Just so that now as Heather's singing, John, Rich and whoever is down below it will not see their name and that scrolling bar on the evaluation screen or the outgoing screen. It's just the simple thing to do like that, alright? So that's it for those three buttons. I hope that helps with getting your performers and rotation going smoothly."
