SimpleTime2000 control board — The controller — on your primary desktop

Live countdown output — The clean Live Window — out to a second screen

Keep the controller on your primary desktop while the clean Live Window outputs to a second monitor — or straight into a production switcher. The green shown here is the chroma-key color you can key out. Choose your own color scheme as it suits YOU!

What's inside

Four timers, one screen

Run four independent windows at once — each set to exactly what your show needs.

Countdown · Count-up · Clock · Messages

Every window picks its own mode and runs side by side.

Countdown your way

Stop dead at zero or keep counting up past it, set a warning threshold, and add or pull a minute live with +1:00 / −1:00.

Instant resets

Reset presets you type in plain minutes (45 → 45:00), plus add or remove presets with + / −.

Message board

A four-slot message bank (M1–M4), each its own style — swap which one is live in a tap.

Second-screen Live output

Drag a clean Live window to any monitor and fullscreen it for the audience — no controls, just the board.

Blackout & key-color slates

One click sends a full BLACK or a chroma KEY color to the Live screen for switchers and keyers.

Style every window — your colors

Typeface, size, stroke, and drop shadow per window — plus a full color picker for warn / at-zero / after-zero states and backgrounds. Drag your palette swatches right onto any color box.

In the control room

Countdown controls, reset presets, and Stop-at-zero / Up-at-zero / warn options

Preset picker — P1, P2, P3, add and duplicate

Save your show as presets

Build a window setup once, then keep it as a preset. Tap P1, P2, P3… to load it instantly — your timers keep running right through the switch. Right-click any preset to name it and recolor its border, fill, and text; ＋ adds a new one and D duplicates the current. Name them your morning session, the keynote, the awards block — all one tap away. Each preset is a full board — it carries its own color scheme and its own M1–M4 message bank, so every preset you add is four more messages loaded and ready.

Send a clean board to the audience

A message board, built in

Set any window to Message and it becomes a four-slot bank — M1 to M4. Style each one its own way (font, size, color), then drop any message on the Live screen with a tap. Walk-in welcomes, sponsor thank-yous, “back in 5” holds — all loaded and ready to fire.
