They added layers on the pads??

I was autosampling the EZDrummer vst last night. So I can have good sounding reggae drums in stand alone. Then I realized in the new update that you can do 8 layers on one pad instead the 4 like before. You can get some pretty real sounding drums from that many layers. 8 snare samples all at different velocities and all starting at a certain velocity and stopping after a certain velocity on the pads?? That many layers? Standalone??? Too cool.
