Open source implementations include Schism tracker, cheesetracker, milkytracker and soundtracker (all sample trackers only) Neil sequencer (a bit more complicated to get to grips with, but allows plugin synths and effects as well as samples). Closed source/proprietarty: Renoise - very nice program with lots of features - built in effects, and use of LADSPA/ native VST effects, and a very clever way of recording vocals/audio in realtime to new sample instruments, but with the big downside of closed source/non-free.. My faves are Neil sequencer and Renoise.
