[22:29] <ciderbat> What midi sequencers do you guys like? I'm having trouble finding one that I want to use...
[22:50] <OvenWerk1> ciderbat: I am probably not the best person to answer...
[22:50] <OvenWerk1> but which ones have you tried?
[22:51] <OvenWerk1> the ones I know about: qtraktor, hydrogen, LMMS, seq24
[22:57] <OvenWerk1> gsequencer, midish (text), freebrith, muse, rosegarden, musescore
[22:58] <OvenWerk1> I am sure there are more (I think there is a seq64 that is a fork or update to seq24) that I don't know about.
[22:58] <ciderbat> I installed seq24, rosegarden, and have qtracktor, hydrogen, and LMMS
[22:58] <ciderbat> problem is, I really miss the old tracker interface
[22:59] <OvenWerk1> I am not sure what that would be like :) I tend to live recording
[22:59] <ciderbat> and I wish I could use that when sequencing beats and basslines off my LADSPA and VST and LV2 stuff, but using Carla since it's easy to route into my DAW
[23:00] <ciderbat> I've found a few that have what I want, but they are source-code only and the websites don't make the build instructions very clear
[23:00] <OvenWerk1> which ones are those?
[23:01] <ciderbat> I will look up gsequenser, muse, and freebirth, as I've not tried those yet
[23:01] <ciderbat> uh, let me check
[23:01] <OvenWerk1> those ones should just install with apt or any other sw installer
[23:02] <ciderbat> crap I can't remember, and I guess i deleted the code dirs...
[23:02] <ciderbat> I do like Non-Sequencer, but I can't seem to get the hang of it and the documentation is bizarre. Maybe I need -to look into it more
[23:03] <OvenWerk1> non-stuff is harder to build for sure but not impossible
[23:05] <ciderbat> I prefer video tutorials over reading the manual, and I can't find that for non-sequencer :/
[23:05] <OvenWerk1> and you probably won't :)
[23:06] <ciderbat> One problem I have these days is that most things have defaulted to piano-roll [thanks FL :P ] and I find that incredibly slow and tedious to use
[23:07] <OvenWerk1>  Non-mixer (which you pretty much need to use non-seq) will only take the old ladspa and dssi plugins that nobody makes any more. in fact all of the good plugins from that era have been redone as LV2
[23:09] <ciderbat> I don't want to use the mixer... I just want the sequencer to trigger the instruments and deal with the mixing in Mixbus. I did get it to work... I think i just found documentation that's better than what the devs made, and I think I see one of the issues I was having [confusing channle and port signals]
[23:10] <OvenWerk1> Ah, yaeh that would work.
