Thanks. Scolily don't seems to support JACK and I have no clue about 
recording without JACK ;)

So I recorded a little song, played by myself via midi keyboard. Opened 
aubionotes, hooked up aqualung multimedia player to aubionotes ins via 
JACK. Connected aubionotes midi out to Qtractor midi sequencer. I played 
the recorded audio via Aqualung via aubionotes in Qtractor which 
recorded the midi out from aubionotes. Imported that midi track into 
Tuxguitar and exported it to pdf and lily, see attachement.
