Drop a folder of stems, one-shots, or raw session dumps into Dr. Session. It listens to what is actually inside every file, sorts it, renames it, and if you work in Ableton it builds the whole session for you.

LAUNCH PRICE. GOING TO $39 AFTER THE FIRST REVIEWS COME IN.
A folder of mystery bounces. Names like Untitled 3 and stem_ tell you nothing about what's inside.
About a minute later, the same folder is grouped, named, colored and dropped into your own template, ready to mix.
ILLUSTRATION OF THE OUTPUT, DRAWN TO THE APP'S REAL TRACK NAMES AND GROUP COLORS.
NOT A SCREENSHOT. REAL CAPTURES GO IN THE GALLERY BELOW ONCE THE DEMO FOLDER IS SHOT.
WHAT IT DOES
Sorting stems before you can even start is real time, gone from every single session. Drop the folder and get it organized in about a minute instead. That is the whole pitch: the price is less than the time it saves you once.
No guessing from audio 03-1.wav or print 04.wav. Dr. Session decodes the actual sound with a neural audio model, so it knows a kick from a vocal from a synth pad no matter what the file is called. Works on the messiest folders: unlabeled exports, old bounces, someone else's stem dump.
For Ableton producers it goes further: a ready-to-mix .als with every clip already on the right, correctly colored, correctly named track. Open it and start mixing on the first beat. Works with Live 11 and Live 12.
Your groups, your sends, your colors, your routing, untouched. It drops the classified stems into the template you already build every session around, instead of a generic one.
Correct a misclassified file once and the Learning Engine remembers. Every session gets more accurate, tuned to your specific sound.
No cloud, no upload, no subscription. Everything runs on your own machine, and it works before you have even opened Ableton.
THE APP
The real app on a real 28-file session, dropped in unlabeled and sorted by sound: 8 drums, 1 bass, 9 synths, vocals, strings, FX, and the full mix flagged as the reference.

FAQ
That's the whole reason it exists. Dr. Session never reads your filenames. It decodes the audio and classifies each stem by how it sounds, so files like audio 03-1.wav and print 04.wav all land in the right place.
Organizing and renaming works for any setup, the output is just folders and files. Full session building targets Ableton Live 11 and 12 today. More session formats are not promised yet.
No. It is a standalone Mac app. You never load it inside your DAW, it works on folders and writes sessions for you to open.
Good on normal drum, bass, vocal, and synth material. Unusual one-shots, layered stems, and heavily processed sounds can land in the wrong group. Fixing one takes a click and the Learning Engine picks it up.
No. Classification and stem separation both run on your Mac. The only network activity is the first-launch setup and a periodic license key check.
No. Dr. Session needs Apple Silicon, M1 or later, on macOS 12 or newer. If you're on an Intel Mac, don't buy this yet.
It copies into a new organized structure and leaves your source folder as it was, so a bad guess never costs you the original.
Yes, and that is a real use case already. Sorting raw one-shots into clean, named folders is the first feature and needs nothing else installed.
You get your license key and a download link by email, right after checkout. The license is perpetual.
One person, working out of Berlin. I'm an audio engineer, and I built Dr. Session because the same hour kept disappearing out of my own sessions, dragging stems onto tracks by hand. Email support and you get me.
