If you know you want both a MIDI interface and a Sampler, AMAS is the one to
buy.  I would definitely recommend it even if you just want a Sampler.  It was 
rated the best Amiga sampler in an AmigaWorld(?) article about a year ago.
Very clean.  The software is OK.  It has all the basics and some interesting
features like the ability to play the samples from a MIDI device.  You can
use AudioMaster with it also.
