Last I checked it out it still had licensing issues, unless
things have changed in the last year, it is not under a decent
open source license.

The test I judge a sequencer by is how easy it is to alter the
volume of, say, all kick drum notes in a drum channel... if it
takes any more than 1/2 dozen clicks/keystrokes then I move on
to the next app and try again. In my limited experience it's
Cakewalk that wins this contest.
