Open Planet Software has announced Sessions Nano, a compact AUv3 host for mobile producers and performers.
It may be small, but it’s no lightweight. Sessions Nano packs the core features and technology of Sessions Pro into a streamlined app for making and performing music on iPhone and iPad. Musicians can connect audio and MIDI gear, mix live audio, add effects, play virtual instruments, host MIDI sequencers, play backing tracks, record performances and more.
