Here's a general technique that would work with many synths (as long as they have a delay effect) and samples/sounds. It might not work with the LE versions of Dim Pro and Rapture ... not sure about that but I believe programming is limited in the LE versions.
Assuming you have the "one-hit" version of the sound available, add a basic delay (nothing fancy like stereo cross delay, unless that makes things even more interesting). Set the delay time as appropriate, synced to tempo or just absolute time. Modulate the feedback of the delay with a MIDI controller. At zero feedback, you just get the original sound. At 100%, you should get unlimited repititions. Aftertouch is probably not a good choice for the modulating controller though, and I'm not sure it would even work as one would expect aftertouch messages only after the note on, which might be too late. But the mod wheel (MIDI CC 1) would be suitable.
