Hey everyone, I've been using hardware synths to write music for a little while and I've heard of dawless setups around and I sort of get the gist of it. My question here is how do you/do you record songs to be able to post in some other way or is using a daw as just a recording step not mutually exclusive with a dawless setup?

I guess to sum up, does dawless only really refer to what is controlling everything or is it truly never using a daw?
