It is getting near xmas and I wondering if there is any sampler that is
piced under $300 or that I can get used for under $200... All I want is
something simple like a SK1.. I just want to be able to control atleast
4 different samples from my K1... Does Casio make a MIDI sampler? They
are always cheap.

Al,
I'll bet an Ensoniq Mirage can be had used for around $300
nowadays. And the Mirage is a *HELL* of a lot more of a sampler than
an SK-1. Hey, some people even *USE* Mirages !!!! 8^) 8^)

How many samples can a Mirage hold? Is there a rack version?

There is a rack mount Mirage.
The Mirage can hold up to 16 samples at any given time, but in order
to do so the samples must be short, about .5 seconds each. Plus, the
16 samples must all live within the range of the keyboard. This is
no problem if you want a sampled drum kit, or a single multi-sampled
instrument, but don't confuse it with the ability to hold 5 octaves of
horns AND 5 octave of strings, and a piano, and....{13 more 'ands'}.
