Sessions 8.0 adds Backing Tracks - one of the top requested features.

You can now use pre-recorded backing tracks, stems and loops in your live performances.

With Backing Tracks you can play an individual audio file or a set of stem files, each with its own volume control. Tracks can be independently set to play once or loop indefinitely and can be routed into the Scene Mixer for further processing.

We’ve also refreshed the Toolbar in Sessions 8.0. The central display now shows the current position in either bars & beats or elapsed time. Toolbar buttons include Play / Stop, Rewind, Metronome Mute / Unmute and a new Panic button that mutes the output and kills any hanging MIDI notes.

Sessions is available on the App Store as a Universal Purchase that includes both the Mac and iPad apps for $19.99. No ads, no in-app-purchases, no subscriptions - just a one-off purchase at a fair price. The update is free of charge for existing users.
