There must be a timidity port?

-edit-

Ah, right, you want midi triggered sample playback. What you want is MidiIn

Ah, that looks like it...

Seems that it can handle 16-bit samples and uses 14-bit trickery to play the audio...

Something that can play good old Amiga 8-bit samples in 4 note ploy would be even better! :-)

Cheers,

Mike.

That's easy. Use 8-bit samples and use Paula 8-bit DMA mode for AHI. Job done.

I should point out that I've used MidiIn and it's very good. You can set up multisamples across arbitrary key ranges, it recognises volume, pan and pitch bend and you can save the entire configuration for easy recall later.
