Other sequencer programs: As we do not claim to be the best linux native sequencer app, we would like you to know about the other very nice programs out there:

• Rosegarden-4 is a very nice and capable MIDI and Audio sequencer.
• Brahms: a MIDI sequencer with similar goals as MusE.

  Hint: Have a look at Brahms excellent score features! - development has been very sparse lately though.

• Jazz is an excellent MIDI sequencer with integrated audio - not updated for a very long time though.
