Isn't it strange that there are perfectly
usable sequencers built into
some keyboards utilizing only not-very-large LCD displays and the
keyboard, numeric keypad, some transport buttons, and a dial? Yet we
are faced with incredibly complex and heavyweight software to do the
same task.
I too would love to see a simple, elegant ncurses sequencer. I'm
fascinated by the fact that there isn't one already; it seems a bit
idiosynchratic for linux.
At the risk of overextending myself, I have considered embarking on
such a project.
What something Timidity++ -- it uses a variety of interfaces,
including
ncurses, slang, GTK+, etc.
