Velocity layers and round robin at the same time!

For a truly humanized and authentic percussion sound, the Impact XT instrument should allow for velocity layers that also cycle through different samples. So essentially a velocity layer would work as a folder with round-robin or random samples inside so the slight variations and subtle nuances that make it feel more realistic (the whole point to round-robin samples) wouldn't sacrifice the dynamic feel of layers that trigger at different velocities.

This is exactly what I'm missing. Round robin or random samples within velocity layers.

Yes!  Please add this feature.  Most of the other DAWs native samplers support round robins and random samples within every unique velocity layer.  Impact needs this to be considered a modern drum sampler.  Please!!!
