    I see. Why not just the audio then?

    BTW, I just realized: dawless means there’s no central software pulling all the sounds together?

      Did you click on my audio only posts back when I made those? It seems like people only listen to music if it’s on their Spotify playlist.

      Yes, there’s no central software involved. I am using an analog mixer as a DAC for recording with audacity, otherwise everything is coming from my synths directed by a midi sequencer. I make music with a DAW too, I just find that people like seeing the creation of music when it doesn’t look like a spreadsheet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j7thabykiQU

      I’m leaning in the whole Techne philosophy of art by doing, if anything just to prove I’m not artifical AI.

        Guess I didn’t scroll that far back.

        Thanks for the background. I guess that’s considered old school nowadays.

        Incidentally I’m just listening to this old school synth band from Perth

          That’s cool, band camp albums are fun to make but unless there’s already a fanbase most people will only listen to the first half of the first song and skip the rest. I have a few things published on bandcamp but not much. I mostly just buy my friend’s albums to support them.
