Just because it's close to Christmas still...
With multisampling, separate samples of the same instrument (or some other sound source) are recorded at different pitches. For instance, you might record an acoustic guitar playing every E, G#, and C over a range of three octaves. Each of these samples can then be assigned to a range of MIDI keys called a key zone (see Fig. 1). If you play a low E or F, you'll trigger one sample; if you play a G# or A, you'll trigger a different sample. Because each sample is confined to a narrow key zone, the sample needs to be transposed up or down by only a few half steps from its original pitch, so it won't suffer from the type of sonic degradation caused by being transposed too far. The keyboardist can play a musical part that covers a wide range without having to worry that transposition will make the sound unrealistic.
Dude your on a computer right? They have this great little tool called "www.google.com" that won't give you sh!t for asking questions like this here.
