The vsti program implements a standard alsa sequencer (just as the
jack_fst program, which infact use the code from vsti (which again use
the code from jack-rack :))), so it is definitely possible to get access
from seq24. Just use aconnect, kaconnect, qjackctl or something to
connect the vsti instrument and seq24. Infact, it should be much simpler
than from pd. I think one of us must have misunderstood something here.
