(request) a simple VST that measures project time

[No_Use]

Would anyone want to knock this together (I'm fine with SM/SE) ?
or does it exist already ?

A VST that measures project time.
You'd insert it on the master (or any track), Audio would simply pass through and it would say: You've been working on this project for xxxx hours.

Good for studios and time management in general.

FL hast this built in, my DAW hasn't, unfortunately.

This is a nice idea for a handy tool.
We put something together, atm there is only a VST 32 bit version and it's currently not available via the HOFA-Plugins Manager, but we will supply this later.
This week is a free workshop week here at HOFA, so it will probably be within the next week.

Edit: Downloads see post below.

It has no reset as you can simply remove and reload the plugin. Instead there is a pause button, so you don't need to close your projects during your breaks.
If you find any bugs or need another format (VST, VST3, AU, RTAS AAX, 32/64 bit, Win/OS X), simply drop us an email (plugins@hofa.de).

Just spotted the HOFA reply now and can't tell how happy I am just in this moment.

Someone listened and got the hands on it. SUPERSWEET.



Thanks a lot HOFA. Really appreciate it.

Haven't tested yet, but will definately and report back.

Configurable, resizable clock/counter plug-in.

Can show:

• Host Timeline as bars/beats/ticks, hours/minutes/seconds/frames, or samples.
• Recording Time (only works if host informs plugins of recording state).
• Stopwatch, with automatable controls.
• Plugin Time - total time since the plugin was loaded.
• Actual Time - "Real Life" time of day.

Use it if your host's counter is the wrong color, or isn't big enough. Bigger is better. Sample-accurate up to one hundred billion hours at 44100 Hz.

Can also set up "cues" to display at selected times.

Sample-accurate up to one hundred billion hours at 44100 Hz.

So close but this is a dealbreaker. I need subsample accuracy at 384 kHz and up to several hundred (possibly thousands) billion hours. Damn.

Pfff now you tell me
Totally missed this one.

It seems to have no pause button (good idea to implement this btw.) and I'm not sure if it keeps the elapsed plugin time on save/close re-opening the project though.
Thanks for the heads up, but still glad with the HOFA version which does exactly what I wished for.
