I am extremely happy about that development. To be perfectly honest I
did not used H2 frequently because there was no way to play the same
sample with differing pitch and thus getting a more lively feel in a set
of samples, more diversity, more opportunities to use a virtual drumkit.

I believe, that no virtual instrument can really mimmick a real drumset.
So it should be possible, to do every thinkable manipulation to a
sample-set to benefit from the digital way as much as possible --  in
the sense of:

"OK, it is no real instrument but I have a tool at hand, that allows me
to do more than I can do with a real one."

Such as:

http://lapoc.de/demos/pianorolled-drumpower-h2.wav

there is only but one tom-sound involved in this one. To let it sound
that way is impossible without a pianoroll-editor....

So  consider the piano-roll mode a major improvement and like to thank
the H2-people a lot for this :-)
