do you mean these relationships could be set by the user?
Or fixed with each sample set?
Is it planned to be able to import different sample formats?
(sorry if I missed that before)
I guess personally I'd prefer to be able to set that sort
of thing up or ignore it depending on the circumstances
(the drummer has two hi-hats!)

the sound of the closed hat is in effect the sound of the open
hat closing/stopping so it seems ok to me.
