Spacebar Counter

=== Large position/loop display Max For Live device ===

If you're a playback tech, or in fact anybody who finds Live’s position and loop displays too small when playing live, this Max For Live device does 3 things that you might find useful:

1. It has a floating window with a big bar/beat/sub-division counter. Very useful if you're running a project on more than 1 machine, and want to see at at glance that they're at the same position.
2. The background of the floating window changes colour if Live's loop function is activated. No more leaving it in loop mode by accident.

3. There's a segmented progress bar which will give you a graphical representation of which beat you’re on. This will adapt for time signatures up to 9 beats per bar.

=== Controls ===

Size - The floating window is re-sizeable. The default size (1.00) happens to be exactly the same width as the expanded Show mode of Full Fat's excellent Conductor plug-in. Set the size using either the slider or the numerical display. Double-click to return to 1.00. The size setting will be saved with your project, as will the position of the floating window.

Open/Close window - Self-explanatory.

Customise colours - All colours can be customised - window background, progress bar, progress bar background, loop indicator, number text, number boxes and number box borders. If there’s an element you don’t want to include, set its opacity to 0%. Colours will be saved with your project.

This device was built in Max 8.5.8 / Ableton Live 11.3.13, running Mac OS Ventura 13.0. If you experience any strange behaviour with other versions, please let me know at spacebartouring@gmail.com
