Does OS 1 or 2 have this new Akai 5000 Feature?

Watching the video at Akai I noticed a feature I have yet to discover in JJ OS 1, nor have I heard of it being implemented for OS 2:

In the video they demonstrate a sequential playing of sounds via a single pad. Hit the pad once, it plays first layer, twice, second layer, and so on. As they put it, "you can play a beat with one pad." Can't remember what or if they termed this.

Looks useful for live performance.

Anybody?

pushing a pad twice to make it play layer 2? doesn't sound useful to me, or did i get it wrong? if i hit a pad twice, i always want it to play the sanple(s) twice...

but here is you answer: no, it's not in jj os1. and not (yet?) in os2.

If let's say you want to easily pound out a simple beat that say comprises a bass drum, hit hat and snare you could just tap it with one pad. You could even use note-repeat to tap out the beat for you: bass drum, hit hat, snare, hit hat. Very rudimentary, but you probably get the point.

If you do glitch-hop or some form of electronica like I do than this feature would allow you to quickly tap out weird beats or patterns in a live setting. For melodic purposes you could use note-repeat to easily arpeggiate patterns of all sorts on the fly.

Not sure about that, but as I remember he was playing with simult where you can play up to 20 loops by one pad, and yes it is in jjos1&2

i also liked the "Cycle thru layer" idea because i'd like to chop and assign my sampled drum fills to a single pad instead of having them take a couple pads.

meanwhile you have the option of setting velocity ranges and then pulling down the slider while playing the pad. same thing, both hands, a little more clumsy, but once it's been sequenced you'd never know the difference
