I once did stuff like that using a midi tracker. Pd was used as sound
engine, and the midi tracker for sequencing. There are several midi
trackers around: I have used ttrk and Shaketracker on Linux.

BTW: Yesterday I was using Nitrotracker on Nintendo DS with my shiny
new SC Lite, but file access so far is too slow. I want PDa for NDS,
puleeeze!  

Ciao
