Session Management Overview

Session managers save the current state of open audio applications along with their connections, allowing sessions to be easily restored without having to manually open each application, load individual settings files, and reconnect all JACK connections.

There are several session managers available for Linux. However, not all applications are compatible with all session managers, though some managers do provide limited support for apps not designed to work with that particular session manager.
