This video was made with the most complicated and unintuitive software I've ever tried; BLENDER. ...and I've tried a lot of software in my Life.

Everything in Blender has to be done through exact steps with many different shortkey combinations and mouseclicks on functions. Even when one is following tutorials about the exact steps to create something it often doesn't work, either because the tutorials are outdated, badly explained or the software behavior is unreliable.

So to make this video I tried the examples explained in the following two videos:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20tQHnIOxQw&t=306s

Following the examples in the above videos works, if they're done separately, but when I tried to add the timer to my equalizer visualizer project the timer wouldn't work at all. So it is very problematic to add stuff learned through tutorials to existing projects. I don't know why.

So what I did instead was to add numbers as animation objects behind the equalizer and it turned out to work perfectly, but only when played back in the Timeline. The rendered video however ended up playing with fast speed after I had added the number animation. BEFORE I added the number animation then even the rendered video would play back normally. So just by adding this number animation everything got fucked up and the animation rendering process wouldn 't even export! The file path I had set was completely ignored by the program. BUT! ...I solved this problem by rendering and exporting the project on another computer.

I appreciate any help people can give me to clarify what the problem is here. :-]
