A G4 will have a problem with that maybe, but current i7/nehalem architecture computers can easily handle this. An i7-920 PC with 12GB of RAM can be bought for around $1000 these days. My guess is that if you can afford a control surface, you can afford one of these, or a mac pro(entry level mac pros are basically the same specs, with the exception of using more expensive server components and coming with less RAM.

If a MIDI event triggers a sample of a tree falling and there's no one there to hear it, does it make a sound?
