Pardon, you might be right here and I might be wrong here. I don't know 
his proposal.

I do write shell scripts for Linux that will handle my sessions. I'm 
using e.g. Qtractor + Hydrogen, but for me Hydrogen is just a 
drum-sample-player, while Qtractor is the sequencer. I can't see any 
advantage to use Hydrogen's step-sequencer in addition to Qtractor. Yes, 
IMO a single application "ghetto" is the right way. Hm? Isn't it an 
advantage to have a hard disc recorder + MIDI sequencer in one 
application? When I do copy and paste, while using Qtractor and Hydrogen 
as a MIDI-sample-player I only need to copy and paste clips for 
Qtractor. If anybody is using Qtractor or Rosegarden as a the MIDI 
sequencer and Ardour as the hard disk recorder and Hydrogen as the 
step-sequencer for drums, than this person has to copy and paste 3 times 
and in addition he needs to write a shell script to launch and set up 
everything.
