There is no best note to sample. Sample what ever note you need.

Sample C3. It works best to sample all of the C notes and go 3 notes above, and three notes below to match with the rest.

what does that mean...

3 notes above and 3 notes below to match with the rest

i mean...

play the "c" note on a piano. For example, play C3...which means the third octave, usually the middle octave depending on the amount of keys. Then you would center that...and put B3, A3, and G2 on one side...and D3, E3, and F3 on the other. Of course, there are more notes because you would incorporate flats and sharps. That's the way that most keyboard makers do their stuff. They usually don't sample every single note on the board, but they'll do the method I just describled. HOpe this helps.

Actually, that probably doesn't help. It's all gibberish.
So much for train of thought descriptions.

The brown note!

Ps. It's all in sample and not the note. Pitch can be adjusted.

i sample high pitch notes then u can slow em down which makes em longer

good for basses and saves sample time too

All the multi-sampled programs that I have only use two samples; one high note and one low note. I'm not exactly sure which notes they are.

i bet you make em work out ok, but in my opinion that's a pretty poor multisample pgm...i like multisample pgms with a different file for every note myself, but that's just me.

here are some free pgms to freak in your own way.

well, the problem with only sampling a low and a high note is that all the notes in between just sound god awful. Of course, there's something to be said for interesting noises, but if you're trying to sample a rhodes keyboard with only low and high notes you're gonna end up with something that sounds like fake crap.

sample like 15 different notes of the same instrument but not the same sample source, then pitch up and down, effect then play the ping pong pue... there is no good note to sample and fU<k the C note, try micro tuning the sample on your computer and dont worry about if it falls into our 12 note scale... there is no wrong note to sample. if you have no computer cut a anything so small that it gets a poormans grainular synthesis.. but if you want to replicate an instrument sample every note, at 4 levels,, soft, medium, hard, frickin hard as hell. the 1000 can handle large amounts of data so rape it...
