App Description

Sessions is the performance-oriented plug-in host that puts all your virtual instruments and effects at your fingertips. With powerful features and a streamlined workflow, musicians can enjoy ultimate freedom to explore, create, play and perform without a DAW.

Refreshingly straightforward, Sessions is designed to keep you ‘in the moment’ however you make music. Thanks to the fluid drag-and-drop interface and innovations like the Always-On Recorder, producers, songwriters and sound designers can quickly experiment with new ideas and jump-start the creative process.

For live players, Sessions has everything you need for an impromptu jam or a professional stage performance including MIDI layers and splits, flexible audio mixing, seamless sound switching, backing tracks, MIDI control, Ableton Link support and so much more!

Sessions takes advantage of the unique strengths of Mac and iPad while delivering the same innovative feature set and ease-of-use on both platforms. Sessions is a Universal Purchase that includes both the Mac and iPad apps with no subscriptions and no in-app purchases.
