I am sorry for the stupid question but I am interested in learning to
use a tracker. [snip]
Well, if it's docs you want:
http://www.agnula.org/documentation/dp_tutorials/soundtracker/
The principles probably apply to other species too.
I appreciate the link, but I'd suggest heading over to the United
Trackers site and checking out the tutorial material there

Jeremiah, here's a breakdown for you:
seq24 - loop-based MIDI sequencer
Rosegarden, MusE - track-based MIDI sequencers
SoundTracker, Cheesetracker, SkaleTracker - native Linux
sample-based trackers
KMidiTracker, ShakeTracker - hybrid MIDI/tracker architectures
Buzz - Windows tracker-on-steroids that runs under WINE
All have their purposes and best applications. I love tracking, but I
haven't kept up with it since Michael Krause left off development of
SoundTracker.
