As a user I agree with Carles:

"My humble opinion is that it should remain as a drum machine"

I think it would be best, if you guys are really up for it, to make *additional
*"machines" that can all be linked. So make a sampler with a midi piano
roll, but do it as a separate entity that can be hooked up with Hydrogen
through Jack or whatever, but each machine is kept separate.

I think Hydrogen is perfect for what it is, a standalone drum machine. And
that's why I like it, and also what sets it apart from other programs - that
it is JUST a drum machine, so I spend some quality time working only on
drums with it...

That's my 2 cents anyways, keep up the good work guys!
