Hi, list!
I tested Loomer Sequent demo, and it looked quite a nice piece of
software. Is there any Sequent users on the list to answer my
questions?
I want to use it on live situation and of course want it to syncronize
with current tempo when needed. How this can be done? Does it support
Jack Transport? (I think it doesn't but maybe I'm wrong?) I succeeded
to sync it with JOST's global tempo, so at least it can take the host
tempo. I tried also with Qtractor, but didn't work. Does Qtractor send
the tempo information to Linux VST plugins? I have version 0.5.1
installed.
I'd like to sync Sequent with Jack Transport or alternatively midi
clock received from another laptop running Ableton, so I guess I would
need a plugin host that could receive tempo either from midi or from
Jack Transport and emit it to the Sequent. Does Ardour support sending
tempo information to Linux VST plugins? I know Ardour has a quite
stable Jack Transport support, and I have used it as a live mixer
sometimes.

Hello Heikki,
Afaik the Loomer plug-ins like Sequent and Cumulus have very basic JACK
transport support. It is on the the to-do list though of the dev. And I
recall when playing around with Cumulus and Qtractor that it was
actually working at some point. I inserted Cumulus (which resembles
Sequent a bit) as a MIDI plug-in and then it responded to JACK transport
messages in Qtractor 0.5.0. I recently tested again with 0.5.3 and then
it didn't work anymore. Also, Cumulus locks up my PC so I lost interest
for the moment (not specifically Cumulus related).
You can also ask your questions directly to the developer:

The dev's nick is CPB.
Best,
Jeremy
