Space_Crush Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Hello! Been looking around and can't seem to find an answer to this: is it possible to display or find the entire duration of a Set in Mainstage Pro? (ie, "SET A TOTAL TIME: 1hr, 35min, 15 seconds"). I'm trying to time out a set to make sure it's the proper duration and wanted to see if Mainstage has this offered anywhere Thank you!

Maddcow Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I’m not sure that I understand your question. Are you using a backing track for each patch, and each patch = 1 song? Is this how you’re using MainStage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space_Crush Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 Yes, they are backing tracks. I mainly use Mainstage for playback of backing tracks with live accompaniment--was looking to see if there was a way to see the duration of each "Set".

Maddcow Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Ok. No, there’s no way to do what you’re asking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ro-ja Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Don't know if this helps, but if you use the Playback plugin for your backing tracks, you could create a text object and assign the plugin's parameter "Time To End" (as bars and beats or as hh:mm:ss) to it.

ro-ja Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 In Layout View create a Parameter Text object. In Edit View create a new Instrument Channel and insert a Playback plugin. Click the Parameter Text object and map it in the Screen Control Inspector as shown in the screen shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
