NAME
gsequencer - Advanced Gtk+ Sequencer is an audio sequencer and composition
editor
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/gsequencer [--help] [--version] [--no-builtin-theme]
[--non-unique] [--menu-bar] [--filename file]
[--no-config]
DESCRIPTION
Advanced GTK+ Sequencer is intended to use for music composition. It fea-
tures a piano roll, as well a synth, matrix editor, drum machine, sound-
font2 player, mixer and an output panel. It's designed to be highly config-
urable. You may add effects to its effect chain; and add or remove audio
channels/pads. You may set up a fully functional network of engines, thus
there is a link editor for linking audio lines.
As version 1.0.0 it supports LADSPA, DSSI and Lv2 plugin format. And pro-
vides the ability to export to WAV, FLAC and OGG audio files. It can run on
various soundcard backends including ALSA, OSS4, JACK Audio Connection Kit,
Pulseaudio Core-Audio, Audio-Unit and WASAPI.
The binary looks for a configuration file in $HOME/.gsequencer/ags.conf.
