<para>
Advanced GTK+ Sequencer is intended to use for music composition.
It features a piano roll, as well a synth, matrix editor, drum
machine, soundfont2 player, mixer and an output panel. It’s designed to
be highly configurable. 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.
</para>
<para>
As version 1.0.0 it supports LADSPA, DSSI and Lv2 plugin format. And provides
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.
</para>
<para>
The binary looks for a configuration file in $HOME/.gsequencer/ags.conf.
