Actually, I think Ardour3 would be ideal for this, as you can easily work
with MIDI piano roll and audio waveforms right on the same screen (most
sequencers open MIDI piano roll up into a separate window). As you can see
in this screenshot, you have everything right in front of you and its easy
to set synch points for both audio and MIDI:
