tX should not be over looked. It is amazingly stable and powerful 
although the interface is (was) a bit blocky to use. I was doing full 
live sets with it 7 years ago with no problems. The svn/cvs/git version 
is well worth the time it takes to compile and Alexander Koenig is very 
receptive to suggestions.

H2 or almost any other sequencer can also be used as a looper in 
combination with jack-rack or any other fx processor.

tX and H2 have advanced midi interface support.
