Synful Orchestra, but with ones own samples?

I'm reading up on concatenative synthesis with a MIDI file input specifically, and came back to Synful's "reconstructive phrase modeling" : http://www.synful.com/RPM.htm

It mentions that " Splicing ordinary PCM sampled sounds in this way would create unacceptable warbles and clicks. "

I'm wondering if the same idea that Synful has accomplished has been done with using arbitrary samples, at all? Even if the results are "unacceptable". I've never heard an example of this being done, other than: https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~music/concat/concat.html (though im after using a large corpus of my own sounds, sounds of different instruments)

And: https://github.com/hmartelb/NSynth-MIDI-Renderer (but this is the nsynth soundset)

Basically a software midi hardware module, that intelligently selects sounds to match the instruments of an input midi file.

Is there some code out there that can do it?
