Is H5 actually a sampler?

I just wanted to know if recording a sound into H5 like a real sampler was now possible as this would make me more interested in upgrading from H3 to H5. (I never use H3 anymore). H4 took so long to arrive that I gave up and bought Kontakt.

It seems that there are other ‘real’ software samplers around now so the choice has widened.

I’m amazed at how excited people get at the suggestion that something that can not actually sample anything should not really be called a sampler.
