In one way or another we would like to add sequencing support to MidiPatch. My opinion:

  1. Use an external sequencer (e.g. Rosegarden or qtractor) Pro: Can be used with MidiPatch as it is. No changes required. Con: We need to find/code a way to interface with those sequencers.
  2. Use an internal sequencer (e.g http://tse3.sourceforge.net) Pro: Tight control over the sequencer. Con: Significantly more work than an external sequencer
  3. Come up with our own solution Pro: ? Con: there are mature and very feature-rich solutions out there - no need to reinvent the wheel.
