rncbc.org has announced a beta release of Qtractor v0.6.5, the "Fermion Ray" release.
Qtractor is an audio/MIDI multi-track sequencer application written in C++ with the Qt4 framework.

Highlights:
- MIDI clip record/overdubbing (NEW).
- Extended track multi-selection for mute/solo (NEW).
- VST-shell sub-plugins support (NEW).
- JACK transport start/stop resilience (FIX).
Qtractor is free, open-source Linux Audio software, distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2 or later.
