Big shoutout to the old Cakewalk. I actually started on version 3? (the one with the dots) and moved along into v5 and maybe last used it on v8. One of the things I quickly learned to really appreciate about Qtractor was the "cakewalk inspired" design which clearly treated MIDI as a first class citizen (as compared to the other wares which focused primarily on Audio).
I've never seen that lollipops offer anything functionality over bars but haven't given it any real thought. I guess anything vertical is fine by me compared to some of the more labor intensive methods I've seen other wares use.
