Easy to implement so there's no reason to NOT have it included into the next release.

Cheers, Tom

There is already a system-time primitive (by request), & you just have to make a module to format it the way you want.

We could do with a run once time primitive So the first time a plug runs the clock starts ticking for 30 day demos and such

The only way i can see to do it at the moment is to use a time primitive and save a text file with the date in to the HD that the plug scans each time it is run Problem is if you remove the text file the 30 days is reset

Oops, thanks. Somehow I completely failed to find this primitive, probably because I search for gettime and currenttime or so.

Thanks!

PS: ...but a conversion primitive time to timestamp and vice versa would still be nice! I won't(!) make one of those without LUA.

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

Shown next to what you post, here and in the app. It doesn’t have to be your real name: 3–24 lower-case letters, digits or _ (capitals become lower case, spaces become _).

    Then your post goes up straight away.

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    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.
