Trying to incorporate it in a jack-session (waste of time)

Live-performance with Linux is very well possible but has a very very
different workflow compared with Live.

The thing that comes closest is Seq24 plus standalone- samplers/synths.
If you use Specimen wisely you have a good percentage of the stuff most
people do with Live too - but by far not everything, that is possible
with Live.
Kluppe can do a lot of stuff with audioloops too so can sooperlooper.
