Create and manage session presets.

Saved session setups: per-phase track lists, crossfade tempo, BPM corridor. One click — full session ready.

1 · What a preset is

  • Name + icon
  • BPM corridor (min/max for auto-pick)
  • Crossfade-sec override (e.g. slower transitions for sleep induction)
  • Curated tracks per phase (Intro, Middle, Climax, Outro)
  • Intro-Outro lock (same track for both — common in hypnosis)
  • Playlist-mode default — Loop (the current track loops until you advance manually, DJ style) or Playlist (the phase's tracks play through automatically). The cockpit's Mode toggle starts on this value and can be switched any time mid-session.
  • Notes

2 · Bundled presets

  • 🚭 Smoking Cessation — BPM 60-80, intro-outro lock
  • 🌙 Sleep Induction — BPM 55-68, long crossfade (12 sec), no climax
  • 😌 Anxiety Relief — BPM 65-78, intro-outro lock, safety-focused
  • 🥾 Hero's Journey — BPM 56-72, 8-sec crossfade, long sessions (60-90 min). See Hero's Journey article.

All four ship empty (no tracks assigned) — you fill them yourself.

3 · Create your own preset

  1. Sidebar → Session presets
  2. Top right + New preset
  3. Name (e.g. „Pain Reframing")
  4. Pick icon, BPM range, crossfade override, notes
  5. Save

4 · Assign tracks

Four areas (Intro, Middle, Climax, Outro). Per area:

  • „+ Add track" → list of available tracks (filtered by BPM corridor and tag)
  • Drag-and-drop between areas
  • List order = playback order on repeated phase-button presses (cursor advances)

5 · Activate

Cockpit top → preset dropdown. Selected preset overrides crossfade, restricts phase track picks to the curated list, enables cursor-based ordering. The preset also sets the initial Loop/Playlist mode — the cockpit's Mode toggle starts on that value.

6 · Duplicate a preset

In the preset editor → three-dot menu → „Duplicate". Creates a copy with „— Copy" appended to the name. Useful when you want a variation of the Hero's Journey preset.

7 · Best practices

  • 2-4 tracks per phase is enough — prevents the repetition effect with regular clients
  • Mix different keys within the preset — Hypnotika's crossfade uses Camelot wheel matching
  • Use the notes field for session-script hints (e.g. „middle, 3rd track is the mentor encounter")
