So basically, I use something like Rosegarden (or a better option?)
for my MIDI instruments, and send the audio that it creates into
Ardour?

Regarding Ardour 3... is it going to fully support MIDI?

What would be a good "jack-transport aware sequencer app" to use with
the MIDI drumset (which has sound module) and the MIDI
keyboard/controller (which I think depends on software for the variety
of sounds)?

...I mean something other than PianoTeq. (No offense to anyone
advertising that but I cannot spend that $$$ right now.) :-\

Regarding the USB/MIDI keyboard/controller - "hexter" was mentioned
earlier for the synth-sounds & "qsampler" (with "linuxsampler") was
mentioned for piano sounds.

Regarding the MIDI drumset - "seq24" was mentioned.

If those apps support the "jack-transport"-enabled idea, that'll be a
good starting point.
