Yes, now that I take a look at my reply again it appears to have mistaken
critique for condemnation. My bad, Dave =p

It just occured to me that everytime "LMMS" pops up here it's bombarded with
the fact that it doesn't play nice with JACK, and as such should not be
considered as a viable option for a Linux sequencing/synthesizing
application. To an extent that to someone who does use LMMS, it's FUD.

Not JACK-friendly = true
Not usable = false

Personally, it's helped me quite a lot in checking out my compositions
against SF2 banks. And back when it didn't have SF2, it served as my primary
sequencer and VSTi host (from which vestige came along). It still does.

Correct, but as you and I both know, there are developers who take the
initiative to ask for solutions and those who don't.

Anyway, you're right - I'm reading too much into it =/
