Seq24 is worth a look for live sequencing. It lets you record MIDI loops on the fly, and has a nice set of keybindings for turning them on and off (in groups, in sync, etc). It seems like some aspects of its jack support might have succumbed to bitrot, but it's worth experimenting to see what you can get working. In any case I'm pretty sure it works fine as a standalone sequencer - it just might have some issues when you try and sync it to another sequencer program, or vice versa. And I haven't used it myself, but it's possible that harmonySEQ might be of interest to you, too. best, J On Wed, Oct 16, 2013 at 3:57 PM, Barney Holmes <djbarney@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello, > > I'm from a DJ'ing background and prefer to play live and record tracks by > keeping everything as live as possible.
