Thanks for the tip, Johannes - I have looked at seq24 before, but only 
briefly. I'll look again.

Thanks Cesare, good point. Well, some of my stuff is looped, and some isn't.

I'm thinking of using seq24 & qsynth as a substitute for hydrogen in

That would be nice, wouldn't it? I'd like something with the ability to 
write conventional notation, and MIDI sequencing, synchronisation but 
not too much more.
