This is one of those questions where the answer is probably not the one
you're wanting to hear, but...
I'd suggest moving up to one of the better specified sequencers like Cubase,
Logic, Sonar, or the like and learning how it works. In the end you will be
be glad you did and you can do all the things you want to do with your
conceptual 'simple' sequencer plus a whole lot more.
None of the software mentioned above is *that* difficult to get into once
you've had an hour or two with a strong coffee and the manual :o). Once
you'd grasped the basics you'd be opening up a door to a whole world of
musical possibilities.
And rest easy that you don't need to know ANYTHING about notation to use a
modern MIDI sequencer.
Good luck with it.
