[linux-audio-user] MIDI-controlled PC-based Sampler

Is anyone using such a thing?- Want to share what they used to get it going?

I'm looking at getting hold of a Korg Electribe MX (rather than the SX,
which has a sampler but lacks the MX's synthesis stuff), and what sucks
hard about the MX is that it doesn't allow you to add extra sounds
(although I read a review that said it could in fact import extra sounds
from SmartMedia which were recorded on the SX, which makes me think it's
just a matter of reverse engineering to achieve this, argh).

So were I to go for the MX, I will need a MIDI-controlled sampler, and
not wanting fork out even more cash on a hardware sampler, I thought I
should use my computer... ;>

Ideas?
