I guess what I am asking for is whether it is possible to be able to use the file browsing option for me to be able to find my sample files, load them and then play them. In a similar manner to the file explorer sort of set- up. Mixxx already employs that feature in the "load track to deck 1 (ctrl+o) keystroke which acts as a file browser. I hope I explained it well.
