Hello Brian,
I have a card called Sountrack 97 PCI. It can play 8 stereo waves
at the time. (Not from software, but from hardware. It's full duplex.
It has some nice delays, reberbs, chorus, and EQ to "shape" the output.
32 to 48 MIDI channels. etc...
It's a beauty.

Try : www.hoontech.co.kr   OR   st.cyso.net
If you are in the US, perhaps you wish to contact it's national distributor

This card costs "around nothing" considering it's capabilities (220 U$S +/ 
-)

Father of loops were the "Analog Sequencers" (I'd love to have one).
For MIDI, I found a software sequencer with "analog feel", SEQ 303. 
Try it here:

Also, Cakewalk 3 has a loop option but it cannot handle audio.

Hope It Helps
Good Luck,
