DawProjectPilot
A lightweight DAW project manager for music producers and audio engineers.
DawProjectPilot is a simple, fast, and focused tool designed to help you stay organized while working with multiple DAW sessions. It scans your project folder, displays all supported project files, and gives you quick access to essential project‑related actions — without ever opening your DAW.
Originally built to streamline everyday workflow tasks for music production, DawProjectPilot now includes versioning, notes, screenshots, audio preview, and more.
Features
🎛 Project Browser
Scan a folder and automatically list all supported DAW project files
Currently supports Reaper (.rpp) and Studio One (.song) projects
📂 Quick Access
Open a project directly in your DAW
Open the project’s folder in Explorer/Finder
Delete projects safely
📝 Notes & Screenshots
Attach notes to each project
Capture and display project screenshots
Supports both new naming (ProjectName.jpg, ProjectName.txt) and legacy formats (PPscreenshot.jpg, PPnote.txt)
🎧 Audio Preview
Automatically detects and loads preview.wav or preview.mp3 files
Useful for quickly remembering what a project sounds like
🏷 Tagging System
DawProjectPilot includes a flexible, multi‑tag system that helps you organize and filter your projects with ease. Tags are stored alongside each project, making them portable and DAW‑agnostic.
📦 Versioning Tools
Clone Project: Creates a new version by copying the entire project folder and renaming all top‑level files to match the new project name
Rename Project: Renames the project folder and all associated top‑level files
Legacy files (PPscreenshot.*, PPnote.*) are automatically migrated to the new naming system
🛡 Safe by Design
Only top‑level files are renamed
Subfolders (audio, stems, cache, etc.) remain untouched to avoid breaking DAW references
No DAW files are modified internally — DawProjectPilot never opens or edits project data
How It Works
Select your main project directory
DawProjectPilot scans for .rpp and .song files
Each project entry shows:
Name
Screenshot (if available)
Notes (if available)
Preview audio (if available)
You can open, clone, rename, or delete projects with one click
Screenshots and notes are stored alongside the project folder for portability
Why This Exists
Managing dozens of DAW sessions can get messy. DawProjectPilot was created to make everyday tasks easier — browsing projects, remembering what each one sounds like, keeping notes, and creating clean version histories — all without opening your DAW.
Supported DAWs
Reaper (.rpp)
Studio One (.song) More formats may be added in future versions.
