Big Notes

Big Notes is a session companion/hardware recall plugin that keeps your photos and text notes inside your DAW session. Snap photos of mic positions, outboard gear settings, pedalboard configurations, synth patches, or notebook scribbles from your phone, they upload directly into the plugin via a QR code on your local network. Everything saves with the session.

Place an instance on every track that needs context. Each instance carries its own four photo slots, its own notes pane, and its own QR code, so revisits, recalls, and revisions don't rely on memory or scattered phone albums.
