Is there an object that displays time like a counter. What I mean is to display min:sec (since beginning of section for instance) for the performer to synchronize time with the electronics.
thanks Oded
it'd be very easy to make as a patch, just [metro 1000] connected to [mod 60] with a [sel 0] triggering an [f ] X [+1] counter for the minutes.
or did i misunderstand, and you actually want to get the 'TIME' ?? (as in, it's now 12:35 pm). i think there is a clock external somewhere. not sure.

[metro] [i] [+ 1] [t f f] [% 60] [/ 60] [i] [makefilename %02d] [pack s s]
but nothing ready made - and i'll have to search for such an abstraction (but rebuilding it from scratch is probably faster)

Thanks for your help. It seems that if only the symbol object could be controlled (in terms of size/colour) it would be perfect for displaying time to a player in a performance situation. Using the number2 option (M S or H M S) has the disadvantage that it doesn't look like a clock so will need a little more time to get use to.

Why not just use separate number2 objects for each field you wish to display, i.e. one for seconds and one for minutes? You could even do one for bars and quarter notes, etc.

This one is using [knob]:

(The URL is one line!)
Personally I prefer a digital clock, I used [cnv] for this.
I also used [timer] for timing instead of metro, because it's a bit easier to patch: Just divide by 1000 and use [div 60] and [mod 60] and some [makefilename] tricks. (You cannot pause [timer] so you may not want to follow this.)
See attached patch.

just a short comment ... i stopped using such a clock, since it's a wonderful way to fill up the global symbol table ...
