ANYTHING can be sampled. And I think it's clear Toast was written and recorded after Mike Amos died. "Mac" is *always* available to track so "he" could be on Toast with little notice or preparation.

Hehe...my husband has an electronic cello voice for his keyboard that is sampled off a real cello. You can hear the bow squeak and everything. It sounds completely real on a recording.
