Hi, a couple of years ago I did a little midi timing
benchmark which
included seq24 and sadly it had pretty bad jitter.

even when patched to use a high priority.
The website has long gone down, but the other pages in the menu might
still have some valuable information since seq24 is from way back, too :
)
With the arrival of jack_midi this kind of benchmarking is probably
not as important anymore, but afaik seq24 still uses alsa-midi?
The documentation for Non-Sequencer seems to say that it was written by
its author to address some inadequacies in Seq24, but when I tried it,
it had problems of its own.
It seems to have no quantize function at all (neither during or after
record), and I was unable to get notes to actually start on a beat.
Sometimes I still fire up Non-Sequencer just to try again and see if I
was missing something.
Between Seq24 and Non-Sequencer though, there are two programs
addressing a very similar need with a similar type of application, each
with its own unique critical bugs. It would be nice if someone could
fix one of them though, because the on-the-fly loop sequencer concept is
very nice and worth doing.
