Version 2.0
Released 02/18/2021
Updated 03/26/2026
Session Notes AU keeps your lyrics, mix notes, set lists, production reminders, and session notes inside the same DAW workflow where you track, edit, rehearse, and mix.

Instead of bouncing out to a separate notes app, you can keep the writing and the work in the same place.

Version 2.0 turns Session Notes AU into a more capable production companion with better writing tools, better note navigation, a flexible editor layout, and a safer day-to-day writing flow.

Built For Real Session Work

- Keep notes inside your DAW workflow instead of breaking focus
- Switch quickly between the note browser and the active note
- Resize the editor and note list with a drag handle
- Use a more polished note browser with clearer active-note focus

Brand New Writing Tools In 2.0

- Markdown-aware writing support
- Keyboard accessory tools for lists, checklists, links, undo, redo, find, stats, and quick structure helpers
- List, checklist, numbered-list, and blockquote continuation
- Indent, outdent, and paired insertion helpers
- In-note Find with live match highlighting
- Live document stats while you write
- Autosave for existing notes while you work

Safer Session Flow In 2.0

- Automatic iCloud sync across devices
- Manual sync when you want more control
- Backup to Files App
- Restore from backup if needed
- Safer handling for note changes across devices

Also Included

- AUv3 plug-in workflow plus standalone app
- Save, Save As New Note, share, delete, and reorder actions
- Multiple themes for different studio environments
- Separate font and size controls for browser text, title text, and note body text
- Comprehensive built-in in-app manual

Session Notes AU is designed for musicians, producers, engineers, and performers who want notes to feel like part of the session, not a second app sitting off to the side.
