Hey!
As a frequent user of seq24, I can say that I would really welcome some
development, however, many of the features you list I don't understand.
I think it would be useful to read what problems everyone experiences the
most. For me turning midi ports on by default is a must, I have no idea why
would anyone think this should be turned off by default :)
Absolutely!
Seq24 should show its available Midi-connections in any ALSA/JACK Midi
connector like Carla or qjackctl.
To be frank: that is the only feature I really sorely miss in it....
A single window mode is very welcome. I don't understand this Linux
obsession with opening a zillion of windows.

Hi Seq24 users,
For my final year university project, I am taking on an overhaul of seq24.
Below is an excerpt from my project proposal - the list of features I would
like to implement -
[quote]
<< Basic (simple changes that should be quick to address) >>
- Swap default on midi autoconnect to second value (add to config file)
- Song / loop mode switch in main UI
- Recent files list
- Move config file to .config folder in /home
- Label keys correctly on loops past bank 1
<< Medium (bug fixes, smaller new features) >>
- Don't take scene change inputs when renaming loops
- With dual screens, remember window placement
- Darken Song mode (overall dark theme like Ardour?)
- Fix glitch with overlaps in loops
- Session manager fixes
- Toggle loops in song mode
- Click time bar to position transport
- Draw and re-position snap in song mode should behave identically
- Add one shot loops
- Decrease size of grid in song mode
- Add name of scene to the side when in song view
- Add autosave function
- Midi send if halfway through note (can be enabled / disabled in
preferences)
- Draw whole notes instead of cutting off early in song mode loops
- Add configurable defaults for note length/ grid snap
- Add note stop/panic button
- Loop colouring
- Fix bug where certain slots cannot contain loops
<< Challenging (significant new features) >>
- Add Box select in song editor (REAPER style)
- Add redo in song mode
- Add Record in song mode
- Allow splitting of song loops at mouse pointer
- Zoom in song mode
- Window title should just have the song name
- Fix jack sync bug/reset button
- Relative velocity altering (REAPER style)
- Add a double / half timing switch for live performance
Where I note “REAPER style”, I plan to source inspiration from the REAPER
audio workstation I use under Windows (http://reaper.fm/). The “Ardour” I
mention is a Linux audio workstation, and probably the most significant
audio project on Linux (http://ardour.org/).

What do you all think? It'll also be great to have a few people test it
during development.
This project will also be open source, and remain faithful to the ideals
of the original project.
If you have any feedback on my list of changes or any other suggestions,
please do get in touch!
Best,
Oliver
