"FreeWheeling is an audio tool for live looping. It provides a highly configurable, fluid user interface for instrumentalists to capture loops in real-time. Based on the JACK, ALSA, and SDL libraries, it integrates with FluidSynth, a software synthesizer." http://sourceforge.net/projects/freewheeling/ Personally I just use Live as a master mixer/effects host (the excellent builtin ones plus NorthPole) for my guitar, while a friend plays a VST instrument. I've never touched the sequencing part. But many people use it as a live looper... Lee
