I think, the [seq] object from Cyclone follows the Max seq object, so
you could look in the Max documentation from cycling74.com how it
works. AFAIK there is no Pd help patch.

One suggestion would be to convert the midi snippets to a textfile
that you can use either in [qlist] or with [textfile]. 

Attached is a simple example how to record and play back from a qlist.
qlists aren't very flexible, basically you can only change the tempo
and do rewinds, so you maybe want to build your own text file
sequencer with [textfile].

That's possible: I prefer noteout and ctlout. ;)
