Freewheeling looks pretty good, except it's more designed to take the
place of a more standard pedal-controlled loop machine. I don't really
want to just record myself live, but I want to play pre-recorded
samples and midi sequences, much like you would if you had a ton of dj
decks lying around, and got them all to fit in a touchscreen.
Plus, I want the engine so I can write my own app.

I've been looking for a high-performance

I'm looking for:
start/stop samples on the beat
scaled tempo control across all samples
volume
effects?
easily wrappable (I'll write extensions, implement protocol
plugins...) with python
I'm trying to write something like ableton live without writing an
engine all over again. FMODex would be *perfect* if it had a
well-defined tempo/beat/sync interface.
I think FreeWheeling might be the closest thing to Live that exists for
Linux, have you looked at it?
