The unfortunate truth is that there are two muse projects. MuSE which you 
probably looked at, a streaming server I think.. and MusE, a sequencer, which 
is likely the one being talked about here.
http://muse-sequencer.org.

Think I missed most of this thread.. the issue is midi roundtrip latency I 
gather. 
How much latency is 'crap'? To my knowledge MusE reschedules incoming midi 
events using the best timing source at hand (if available rtc is used, if 
not, alsa), latency should be negligible.

Regards,
Robert
