I am looking for a kind of sampler 
which would have usual tracker's sampler
functionality.
(as in ScreamTracker, ImpulseTracker,
CheeseTracker)

The main features are: 
*ease of changing samples on the fly*,
*usability*.

In fact I just want the second half of
conventional tracker to use with 
ShakeTracker which is midi sequencer.

The algorithm "swami convert into sf2 save
 load into fluidsynth"
 proposed by Jeremiah Benham is not okay
 this must be done by a couple of 
 mouse clicks [or better keyboard shortcuts].

looks like simsam is something promising.
can't wait until I get to my linux box
and try it.
