For music producers
Your DAW keeps the music. Tapelog tracks what happened and what’s next.
The context of a session is fragile. Days later, you open a project and the intention is gone. Tapelog holds what your DAW can’t: where a track is heading, how it felt when you started, and what comes next.
Free during beta. Any tracks you add now won't count against future plan limits.
You’ve probably tried to track this somewhere: a notes app, a spreadsheet, a voice memo to yourself. They can store information. They just can’t hold context. Which tracks are ready. Which need attention. What you were building the last time you opened that session and what the track was supposed to feel like. Right now that context is either living entirely in your head, or forced into tools that weren’t built for the studio.
Without Tapelog I would be losing track of the work I’ve been doing. It’s giving me a place to drop notes on new ideas, which is leading to me following through more consistently.

A complete view of your catalogue changes how you work. Once you can see what’s developing, what needs a session, what’s been quiet too long. The energy you were spending just trying to remember goes back into the music.
01 — Catalogue
Every project in your catalogue visible at once: status, tags, your next action, when you last worked on it. Add artwork to a track while you’re making it. For the visual world you’re building toward, not just for release. Your best track isn’t always the newest one. Tapelog makes sure it doesn’t stay buried.
02 — Track detail
Been away for a while? Get a recap and you’re back in the room. Every track holds everything alongside it: where you were going with it, what it was supposed to feel like, key, BPM, genre, mood, reference tracks, links to your latest bounces. All without opening a folder.
03 — Session journal
Write a note after every session: what you worked on, where your head was, what shifted, what you want to try next. Set a next action before you close the project: a message to your future self so the thread is never lost. Three weeks later, the context is still there.
04 — Rediscover
Tapelog tracks every project that's gone quiet. Pull one back at random and the story is waiting: last session, next action, where you were. Or filter to see them all. Tapelog just keeps the light on.
