How do you document your sessions?

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

IOW, what are you using to keep track of what you doing as fact as
effects, normalizing, converting etc.
IOW at the end of a project, how do you document what was done in terms of
mixdown?

Any free/low cost software that will do track sheets, etc

I take lots of notes, Track sheets only stop you from recording over
something, and tell the next engineer down the line what's on the
track. (not another train I hope)
Before I start rendering any of the audio files I do a "save as" and
store my plugin settings etc, I back up regularly and try and leave
access to all stages of the production.
I don't see a DAW as being like a Desk and Tape machine setup, recall
sheets don't really count in this situation. if you want to change a
setting to how it was before you changed it you just re-import the
original file.
Backing everything up properly, and labeling clearly is the way
forward.
Bring back those plactic 2" tape boxes though, and put yer dvd's dss4's
in them I say...
