You don't need the physical element, just the second part you 
mention. When a pad is hit while the last sound is still playing, it 
should restart the sample further into the envelope, not from the 
start. A software solution would work just fine, and would be 
applicable to all existing pads not just those with the "extra" 
sensor.
