Hi folks!
Long time, so see! I'm back again after another heart attack and a diabetes
diagnosis. But I'm feeling better that I did even several years ago. Well,
thats enough self pithiness, here is my case: :-)
I have decided to test Seq24 again as a creative, effective and efficient MIDI
sequencing tool for composing and arranging. But over the years, I have found
it unstable enough to destroy my creative flow when I'm in that mood. That
situation also goes also for the 0.92 one at the Seq24 project site at
launchpad.net.
So before I try 0.93 and get it under my skin, how about Seq42 or even
something else? I'm very comfortable with Rosegarden, but Seq24 is probably
the fastest thing to use and setup when one quickly want to put some tracks
together for creative usage or arranging.
What do you find easiest and best to use when only focusing to make tracks and
arrangements as fast as possible? What do you use and what do you think?

I have the same experience with seq24, well no, not stability issues,
but last time I fired it up I couldn't get it to work at all, but it
could have been just me ; still, no song that day :/ it's a shame
because I like mostly everything about seq24, starting with it's
interface and block workflow.
Have you tried harmonySeq <https://harmonyseq.wordpress.com/>? It's
quite wonderful, and really refreshing, I tried it out, and even made a
(french) tutorial for it
<http://linuxfr.org/users/philippemc/journaux/betatest-reveille-le-cyberponk>,
just after reading a very enthusiastic (borderline lyrical) article from
Louigi Verona
<http://www.louigiverona.com/?page=projects&s=writings&t=linux&a=linux_harmonyseq>
about it.
I made a quick song (well, no, just a short piece of music, but I'd like
to use it as a pure composition tool to make SONGS, like R&D verses,
hooks and bridge with its key changing functions) right away in it
(using only Qsynth with the Debian fluid-soundfont) and the sky was
really the limit, it responds quickly, is very light and
one-task-one-tool compliant, and did not crash on me once.
Definitely try it if you didn't.
