A notes session relates to a recording. From the sidebar you can:
- Create a new session with a name
- Switch between sessions by clicking them
- Edit session names by clicking the hover button or long pressing on mobile
- Delete sessions (removes all included notes)
Sessions can be in one of two timestamp modes:
- Clock mode - notes use the current time-of-day (HH:MM:SS)
- Timer mode - notes use time relative to when the timer started. Supports multi-run timers (pause/resume across multiple takes).
Manually created sessions default to clock mode, but can be run in timer mode by clicking "Start Timer" in the overflow menu (⋮). Sessions created through integrations are always in timer mode, as their start and stop is designed to be triggered automatically.
Notes can be typed into the input box and commited with the Enter button. The timestamp is frozen as soon as the the first letter of a note is typed.
Notes can be:
- Edited or Deleted by clicking on the hover button or long pressing on mobile
- Color-coded using the color picker
Quick Tags are customizable shortcuts for commonly used notes like "Cut" or "Retake", and can be changed in the overflow menu (⋮).
A shareable guest link can be generated for a session from the overflow menu (⋮). The link is automatically copied to the clipboard, and a QR code and URL are displayed:
Guests can:
- View and add or edit notes to that session
- Start and stop the timer
- Export notes for editing the recording afterwards
Guests cannot access other sessions.
Once finished recording, the recording notes can be exported for use in editing software. Open the overflow menu (⋮) in the header to access export options:
- REAPER - CSV with timeline markers
- Audition - CSV with timeline markers
- Resolve - CMX3600 EDL format (select framerate from modal)
Exported timestamps use the timezone configured in RECNOTES_EXPORT_TIMEZONE (default: UTC).
