Remove the inline Float in this file & see what happens: Time format: Seconds to Hours:min:sec display

Ooh Err, that is not good - it can't even get zero right! Seem to remember that this always was a bit of a dodgy module - crashes when changing the format string etc...

Absolutely - I always thought it deserved the R&D designation more than a bunch that still have it and yet are rock solid (e.g. parser primitives!?).

But it works well if you make sure you feed it a float (not a string as it's labelling suggests) and you make sure the 'format specification string' is valid before you connect it.

I don't even bother figuring out the format strings for it any more... I use a higher-level module I made ages ago to get the job done. It uses a purgable module to generate the specification string so it adds virtually no overhead to exported files.

How do I adjust readout without crash

That's very handy - Thanks. 🙂

A few rules keep this a friendly place. You agree to them once.

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
