Unpractical, it's better make it with two (stereo) and use direct
sampling from harddisk.
How many voices Amiga can handle through DMA?
And same time there is a program which handles MIDI data.

I like Amigas DA chip, because it read samples automatically.
(Without my program.)
Have somebody done direct sampling from harddisk yet?
