There are a couple of hardware sequencers that seem quite complex 
coming out. The zeit and phaedrus (http://www.infectionmusic.com/), 
and also the genotron (http://www.grexultra.com/).

Actually, the forthcoming Spectralis, by Radikal Technologies sounds 
pretty interesting, and I think is supposed to have a very evolved 
sequencer. Not sure whether it actually samples, or whether you have 
to load your own...
