Re: [linux-audio-user] anybody using seq24 for live performances?

hey all. i'm considering picking up a cheap (new) laptop and running seq24 and a sampler on it, and slaving some outboard modules, for a live p.a. solution (as in dance/electronic/techno live production). it looks cool enough from the homepage, but i've found very little reference to it elsewhere on the net, and nothing that really addresses it's strengths and weaknesses in a live setting based on real-world experience. it looks like the guy that wrote it uses it for this, but he doesn't talk about it much on the site. alternatively, i might pick up an akai mpc1000 for my live sequencer - i definitely like gear, although i'm not bent on it. if i thought that seq24 could more or less do what it does, that's the route that i'd go down, methinks. i've got an rme hammerfall multiface, so i'm not concerned about getting sound out of it (although, recommendations for a laptop that would work with the hammerfall cardbus would also be most welcome).
