Watch Video: How To Use Ableton Live Racks to Create Multi-Sampled Instruments
I’ve seen questions recently in Modulate This comments, and on the Ableton Live forum regarding the creation of multi-sampled instruments in Ableton Live. This video tutorial is step-by-step how-to video that walks you through the creation of a velocity switched multi-sampled instrument using Ableton Live, Ableton Simpler, Instrument Racks, and Drum Racks.

Got the comment below from banthpope over on YouTube. I was trying to keep things simple but agree with the comment so based on this feedback, I updated the video with some annotation bobbles to include these tips.
A couple of time-savers:
----banthpope----
* Just drag all of the clips straight to the instrument rack, this will still create four separate simplers with the default settings
* When setting velocity (and other) maps equally, just right-click (or ctrl-click on one-button mac) and there is a menu option "distribute ranges equally"
seems a shame to not use those features, especially for something as tedious as building multisamples

Saw this from the link off the Ableton forum. The video is informative, almost mind-opening for a new Live user such as myself, and it's also really well done. I look forward to seeing more of these. Thanks!
