But not a nice implementation at all.. time ago i wrote on the mailing list and had the idea of an improvement of the keyboard shortcuts, extending it for all the functions of hydrogen, i also did a patch that is lost somewhere.

I need one sample per instrument but in this way i have a layer with different samples.
