I appreciate the link, but I'd suggest heading over to the United 
Trackers site and checking out the tutorial material there

Jeremiah, here's a breakdown for you:

    seq24 - loop-based MIDI sequencer
    Rosegarden, MusE - track-based MIDI sequencers
    SoundTracker, Cheesetracker, SkaleTracker - native Linux 
sample-based trackers
    KMidiTracker, ShakeTracker - hybrid MIDI/tracker architectures
    Buzz - Windows tracker-on-steroids that runs under WINE

All have their purposes and best applications. I love tracking, but I 
haven't kept up with it since Michael Krause left off development of 
SoundTracker.

Best,
