Layering Samples ( without sample pool)

Hi,

is it possible to layer sounds without loading them into the sample pool. So I load a KICK to Pad1, than I want to layer that kick with another kick or HiHat or whatever, I go to PROGRAM EDIT, SAMPLES, go to LAYER2. From here I just can see the Sample Pool. But would it be much nicer to have access to my other Sample content or HDD?!

With the current way, I have to decide which sample I want to layer, because first I have to load it into the sample pool and than go to PROGRAM EDIT.

Is it a feature request or am I missing something?

If you want access to all the samples on your HDD and have them streamed from disk... you're probably going to want a DAW... however you still need to load them into your system before you can use them.

Even though Ableton Live offers disk streaming, it doesn't magically know what you want to do with it... and you need to load it into a sampler or clip so that you can layer them.
