We tried out the software by creating a song together, in which Jacob was using Logic Pro X and Kristian was using Ableton Live 11 Suite. It would have been nice to have a root folder visible in the plugin, which makes it easier to extract without bouncing. But if you want to extract the tracks as audio files to your hard-drive, you have to import and bounce them through your DAW first. This makes it effortless to import audio to and from Satellite. The plugin already has a built in file-system that follows the DAW’s session. Since both participants already are synced to the same time-measure, tempo and key, the sharing of tracks straight to the timeline could not be easier. To collaborate with Satellite Session is a breeze compared to sharing files over Dropbox or Google Drive. It’s compatible with most modern DAW’s that support plugins and timeline workflow. On Mac/OS X you will need to be running 10.13.0 or higher. As mentioned previously it works just like any other plugin. With ‘Chaos Mode’ enabled, everyone can also contribute with Audio/MIDI tracks. You can also choose to make your session public, and anyone with your Invite ID can view the project. You can easily sign up and log in with your Google account or preferred email. To invite a collaborator to your Satellite Session, just add their email in the ‘Invite’ menu and they will get an email with a Session Invitation Code. Uploaded tracks will instantly show up in the other collaborators corresponding Satellite Session. The timeline and bars in the Satellite Session correspond to that of the DAW. You arm the ‘upload cloud’ in the plugin of the tracks you want to share, press play in your DAW, and the Satellite Session will record and upload the armed tracks. This is a nifty feature for quick pre-listening before importing MIDI to your DAW and choosing a softsynth for MIDI playback. The plugin can also preview shared MIDI files by pressing the keyboard icon. When adding these plugins to your tracks, new tracks will automatically appear in your Satellite session. Satellite MIDI can be added to MIDI tracks to share MIDI files. Insert the plugin first in the insert chain to just send the dry signal, or place it later to capture any plugin up to the point that Satellite Audio is located. Satellite Audio can either be added to an audio or MIDI track, to send audio files. Satellite Audio and MIDI lets you transfer your audio or MIDI files respectively into your Satellite Session. Satellite Session works as the portal to transfer and receive files, added to an empty MIDI track. The plugin-bundle comes in three parts Satellite Session, Satellite Audio and Satellite MIDI. You won’t need to learn a new DAW in a browser or app, as you can stick to your own preferred DAW and workflow in music-making. We chose this as our tool for asynchronous music collaboration as we thought this could have real practical value. You can easily set project attributes, to make sure you work in the same key and tempo so there will be no conflicts when working with the same project. Satellite Sessions opens as a plugin in your DAW, where you can share audio and MIDI files with other collaborators. It works similarly to dropbox and other file-sharing platforms, but specialises it’s workflow to a DAW. Satellite Sessions plugin-bundle by Mixed In Key is a free collaboration tool used between digital audio workstations. Reason, Reaper, Bitwig, Digital Performer, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Studio One, It works as a Googleĭrive, or dropbox companion that skips importing A plug-in that lets you collaborate over differentĭigital audio workstations.
