Remote Recording
Especially in the current situation, it makes sense to make recordings without contact. But the quality shouldn't suffer. We have very good experiences with our Remote Recording Setup.
For several years we have been working with SessionLinkPRO - a professional, browser-based far-end recording solution that enables bidirectional audio transmissions in studio quality and with low latency. Also ideal for recordings with high security requirements.
Security
- direct audio connectionfrom end-to-end
- no caching of the transmitted data
- encrypted transmission through HTTPS and DTLS
This is how SessionLink works
Please use LAN - avoid WiFi

FAQ - Frequently asked questions
SessionLinkPRO works with recent versions of Google Chrome, Chromium, Opera and Yandex. However, Google Chrome is recommended as SessionLinkPRO generates the lowest CPU load on Google Chrome.
If no audio devices are shown at all: Did you allow Chrome to access media devices when you first launched SessionLinkPRO? If not: Click on the camera icon on the right side of the address bar and allow access. Reload the page and try again.
If other audio devices are visible but not the desired audio interface: If Pro Tools is running, please see the next appropriate section of the FAQ. Otherwise you probably have one of the few audio interfaces not compatible with SessionLinkPRO. Try a different audio interface.
Yes! There were successful and stable connections with both 3G and 4G networks. However, we cannot officially recommend mobile connections, as connection problems due to poor network coverage or interference cannot be ruled out. In principle, wireless LAN or – if possible – wired connections should be preferred for mobile connections!
telephone direction
Don't have the opportunity to be there for the recording, but still don't want to miss anything?
With us you can easily be present at the recording by telephone. You hear the session directly from the studio and can give stage directions and immediately assess whether the recording will turn out the way you want it to.
