If I understood your question correctly, I'm not aware of anything that can play a different sample based on incoming audio (notes) in real-time. MIDI yes, audio?
The only things I'm aware of so far in this regard is for using a synth as an effect, or as a vocoder, to re-synthesize incoming audio. But as far as triggering new samples, that certainly sounds interesting, but don't know if that has been achieved yet. I would see the initial challenge as doing the pitch detection, aka ARA Celemony Melodyne, and then substituting a sound.
If anybody can correct me, I am interested in this topic as well!
