Sequitur is designed for people who like to tinker with their music. It facilitates rapid, dynamic, and radical processing of your performance. It allows you to quickly and precisely edit MIDI data.
In Sequitur, you work almost exclusively in two main windows: The song window provides an overview of your entire composition, and allows you to easily restructure passages, add instruments, and non-destructively process MIDI events. The track window provides the tools necessary for detailed editing of MIDI data.

1.1. Tracks, Phrases, Filters, and Pipelines
There are three main objects you will interact with:
Filters are found only in pipelines, of which each track has three: An input pipeline for receiving MIDI data from a MIDI device, processing it, and placing it into phrases in the track; an edit pipeline, which works in conjunction with the pencil tool; and an output pipeline, which processes a track's data before sending it to a MIDI device for playback.
