seq24 is my favorite sequencer. It might not have too many features, but i love it because it does everything I need in a simple, intuitive way.
I sync it to ardour when i want to record tracks as audio.
Dave Phillips has written a nice introduction, so i will shut up and give a link: http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8304

don't exactly know what you mean with audio support. I guess I can say it hasn't, because 'all' it does is sending and/or recieving virtual MIDI.seq24 hasn't audio support is it?
There's no integrated support for e.g. plugins converting MIDI to Audio signals.
Of course you can connect your favorite synths/sample players to its output, managing connections either internally or via a patchbay like Qjackctl.
In seq24 notes can be entered using the mouse in a piano-roll editor - or can be recorded from incoming MIDI. There is no editor where actual score-style notes appear.How do you make music with midi without a notation editor?
This might be more suited for repetitive 'electronic' music or live performance than for classic composition, the length of a single loop is limited to 64 bars.
Duration relative to the tempo (like 1/4, 1/32) can be set in the Pattern Editor and then adjusted by middle-click dragging the mouse. When recording incoming MIDI from your keyboard for instance, any MIDI message gets recorded the way you play it.How can you manage the duration of the different 'notes'?
I guess scores are really powerful for writing music, but I do not (yet) read/write them fluently, so in my case I wouldn't call it easier using them.
I dislike entering notes by mouse in seq24. Usually I record from MIDI Keyboard which is highly intuitive and gives quick results. The same with MIDI-controller messages.

mmh yeah... I've to buy a midi keyboard or electric piano with a midi port someday....laiis wrote:I guess scores are really powerful for writing music, but I do not (yet) read/write them fluently, so in my case I wouldn't call it easier using them.
