That is one of the reasons, the Bitwig-devs hate MIDI from the heart

Bitwig is not even a real MIDI-sequencer, it is a OSC-sequencer that
can translate incoming MIDI and send/store it.
1.) play a few tracks free jazz or 12-tone style
compositions and
apply some evil fantasy regarding sound and you have something
that would be considered "avantgarde" with bitwig the same as
easy.
MIDI wasn't made to play Ornette Coleman compositions.

And what's called (Free) Jazz nowadays usually has nothing to do
with music. They even call Mike Patton a Jazz or at least an avant
garde musician, for my taste he isn't a musician at all. MIDI was
made to produce pop music and Linux MIDI sequencers have several
weak points, that other MIDI sequencers don't have. 12-tone is
something different, but you likely will use hard disk recording
and less MIDI for 12-tone music too.
It works most easy when you are out for 4/4 stuff
structured as
common in pop.
And common for many, if not most Jazz compositions too. However,
you can use MIDI for 7/8 as good as for 4/4. Perhaps you used the
wrong sequencers or I didn't notice that your post is just an April
Fools' joke.
