Hi,

as the author of the (unfinished) teqqer I have to add that recording
MIDI is definitely on the agenda for the future. I have to find some
time to work on it again and fix the long issues list before I can
make a proper release. And I also still ponder how to integrate a
modular synth like Carla into it so it becomes an integrated music
making package. I do not plan to support recording of audio though, as
I don't really know how to represent that in a tracker format. Sure
one could use a "generic" audio event type and associated track type.
But I'm not sure on how well that would work.. Input appreciated..

Have fun,
Flo
