Sample Music Key preset?

Is there a way to save the key that the sample is in with the sample?

I want to be able to set an overall project key (i.e. key of "A") and have a library of live clips that contain clip key information, so that I can decide mid-song which clip I want to add to the mix based on my mood, but have it automatically adjust the warp and root note preferences to play in not only the tempo but also the key of the song without having to transpose the sample manually.

Thanks.

if a sample has the key within the name of a sample that key will be used when placed on a instrument like sampler,but not the clip area.

eg: Name C0.

Really? I'm surprised Ableton hasn't thought of that yet. So I guess I pretty HAVE to manually transpose even every time I add a sample, even while playing live.
