InstantSampler
The plugin could be named "audio copy-paster" or "snippet looper", but I choose to call it InstantSampler because it does what a simple 'normal' sampler does (playing audio fragments by MIDI notes), but it takes its samples (instantly) from the audio input whenever you hit a specific MIDI note for the first time. Every consecutive time you hit the same MIDI-note, it plays back the recorded fragment (or shorter, depending on the note's length).

Awesome piece of plugin. Perfect for beatboxing and whatnot.
I only wish it didn't clear the sample pool data once playback starts. I'd much more like it to keep the samples and choose manually, when to remove them and make new ones.
