I would say ABSOLUTELY. The microSAMPLER has MIDI IN and OUT, and the M50 has MIDI also, so all you gotta do is make the MIDI connections and scroll through some menus to adjust MIDI functionality to your liking. Plus the M50 samples, right? So you could even sample the microSAMPLER if you wanted.
GEAR I HAVE: KORG RADIAS Keyboard, Roland JX-3P, Roland TR-505, Roland TR-626, Yamaha DGX-220, Yamaha Trombone

GEAR I'M INTERESTED IN: (Possibly a trade for any of the above?) KORG ESX-1, Yamaha MOTIF XS, Yamaha MU-100 Rack, Vintage Gear Dead or Alive: TB-303, Any other Roland TR-x0x Drum Machines, x0xb0x, ANY vintage synthesizers.

The M50 does not sample.

You can use the M50 to sequence any external MIDI gear though. Korg workstations have always had quite a comprehensive sequencer implementation allowing you to address external sound modules almost as if they were any other internal track - you just set the track to external (EXT) and select the program number. You can even store the mix and pan settings using the mixer just like you do for any internal program.
Current Gear: Kronos 61, RADIAS-R, Volca Bass, ESX-1, microKorg, MS2000B, R3, Kaossilator Pro +, MiniKP, AX3000B, nanoKontrol, nanoPad MK II,
Other Mfgrs: Moog Sub37, Roland Boutique JX03, Novation MiniNova, Akai APC40, MOTU MIDI TimePiece 2, ART Pro VLA, Focusrite Saffire Pro 40.
Past Gear: Korg Karma, TR61, Poly800, EA-1, ER-1, ES-1, Kawai K1, Novation ReMote37SL, Boss GT-6B
