Here it is, a new QMidiArp version has arrived! The main new features are JACK MIDI,
which is the default backend now, JACK Session support, and a new in-sequence loop
marker that can be used to bounce the play direction or to loop at a mouse-clicked
position in the sequence. Note that you can still get the alsa backend by starting with
qmidiarp -a .
The full list of noticeable changes is below.
Thanks again to all having reported ideas and bugs and given their support.
Masters of the step sequencer, Enjoy!

o Effect of groove settings is displayed in the Arp/LFO/Seq screen
o LFOs can be triggered and restarted by the keyboard

is kept in memory and is also saved to the session file as a whole

removed again by clicking in the bottom left or right area of the
Seq screen.

for getting the ALSA backend

first one encountered and ignored all others
