What I want to achieve - simply put notes to trigger VST / DSSI / other plugins instruments. But with possibility to see them all on one timeoneline....As I mentioned - I knows its possible to do with hydrogen + I think seq24 - but unfortunately it is not useful enough for me. I really think that incoming piano roll is a solution. As far as I checked yesterday, most promising alternative qtractor has piano roll but still doesnt support automatisation? As far webpage says...
