Take Counter is an app to help track takes during recording sessions. It allows engineers to keep the current take visible on screen while working in another app like ProTools. It's been designed and built in collaboration with recording engineers from New York and London.
Take Counter is available as a Universal MacOS app. A web version is also available.
- Manually enter and change the take
- Customizable global keyboard shortcuts
- Automatic, audio file based, take tracking
- Always on top display (togglable)
First, install the project dependencies:
npm install
Then you can run the Electron app:
npm start
or the web app:
npm run web
You can also run the tests:
npm test
and lint the code:
npm run lint
Both npm test and npm run lint must pass in
order to merge a PR.
The UI and most of the application logic is kept in the
components folder. The Electron and web app logic are
separated into the electron and web folders. All shared
code should go in components and platform specific code should
go in the respective folders.
