hey..
I have been trying to figure out how to do this..

(1)
I drag in a short sample.. a tone or a sound

(2)
I prepare the SAMPLER so that when I press C3 it will be playing there..

so this is what I am trying to figure out.. and I have searched for a tutorial too..

I want the sample an octave up.. to play as long as it does when I press C3. Dig?

I have seen in some tutorial that it is possible to have many samples in sampler.. one for each tone..
How is that done?

there is no time stretching in sampler, so you can't do it exclusively there

the easiest way, if you don't need the other sampler features, is to map a keyboard range to a session slot.

if you need to load a sampler this way, it will involve some manual labor. pick the range you need - say C3-C4..

go to arrange, set the warp mode on the clip and then copy the clip out to 13 total new tracks by selecting the first track and ctrl+d 12 times..

transpose the 12 copies to the new semitone settings...

select the whole block of clips and "consolidate"

drag this bunch of new clips into the sampler..

in the zone editor, select all the samples and drag the lo and hi note values of ALL of them to C3 -C4

now right click and choose 'distribute equally"

should have it then.

wow..
I will give that a try!!
and I will even put on longjohns while doing so... it is kind of cold here in Sweden tonight
