Have I got this right before I get carried away...
I sample a sound/beat/etc, run it through Mixed In Key (which I already own for DJing) to find out what key my sample is in.
Then when importing the sample into Sampler, I change the Key section to whatever key Mixed In Key detected the sample to be.
I know this sounds pretty straight forward but wanted to make sure I was right before I start creating and labelling many samples

Re: Setting the key of a sample...
But if you loaded the sample wouldn't it already be in the key it was originally?
Mixed in Key doesn't change the key it just renames the file. Confused

Setting the key in sampler to the key detected allows you to play a C on your keyboard to hear the sample in C (if the detection was correct and your sample has a fundamental frequency)
Be wary of smaller detuning though.

watch out for the shortening/lengthening effect that pitching up/down will cause.
