sure but then neither is it the forte of linux audio software in general. for sequencing i definitely dig Pd+Tk a lot more than eithe seq24 or Dino, since youve got full access to the data for further massaging/accessing in unconventional ways without being bound to a clicky-clicky GTK workflow.. and arent bound to MIDI-enforced notions of what is a track, what is a folder of tracks, what is a region, etc..

http://replic.net/~ix/pr/seq.png for note/part editing, http://replic.net/~ix/pr/lg.gif for streaming control-data. just grab /extensions/gui/ix/{mat,lg}.wid and [widget]..plug the xlets into PDContainer, Pool, or the storage of your choice and get editing...using del, metro, pipe, or what have you for playback..

for this i like rradical-style figure-8 abstraction to timestamp events and shuttle them onto storage - you can alligator-clip them anywhere in a patch, instead of having to keep track of midiout's and range remapping into/out-of midi and the subsequent resolution loss..
