LMMS is a free cross-platform alternative to commercial programs like FL Studio®, which allow you to produce music with your computer. This includes the creation of melodies and beats, the synthesis and mixing of sounds, and arranging of samples. You can have fun with your MIDI-keyboard and much more; all in a user-friendly and modern interface.
VeSTige
On Linux, the default setting seems to be 32-bit wine. When downloading DLLs, get the 32-bit ones. It may be possible to change an option to switch to 64-bit... but I haven't verified it.

- Decay Time - The time over which the sound decays after the peak until it reaches the sustain level.
- Sustain Level - The volume of the sound sustained while the key is held down.
