The main problem I am having is that there is
just so much info to trawl
through and so many apps! Can anyone recommend something stable that
could function as a jack-connected sampler player,
Specimen.
Also worth looking at ZynAddSubFX for synthesis and QSynth / Fluidsynth
for playing soundfonts.
and something else
stable that could function as a regular MIDI sequencer and/or MIDI
loop/drum sequencer for my external synths?
Rosegarden4, MuSE
However, I'd recommend Hydrogen for generating drum loops.
I would recommend seq24 as a nice (not traditional style, but very light
and better for live work IMHO) sequencer, along with specimen (samples)
and jack-rack (ladspa plugin effects box), all through jack run using
qjacktl (to make connections easier), and recorded using jack timemachine
(very simple).
For something completely different from any music program you have ever
used (or imagined) before, try freewheeling.. you definitely have to watch
the tutorial videos to work out how to use it though!
