I was looking for a band in the box alternative. My idea so far is to use LeMMA as a front end to MMA. I am lacking a way to loop the chord progressions though. I think maybe a command line midi player that supports looping may work. I tried timidity in --loop mode but it pits a long pause after each loop. I also tried seq24 but I have to set up assign Alsa channels for each track each time. Is there a tight looping midi player or a band in the box alternative! Jeremiah ----------------------------
