Use the layer! it's easy

[1d3nt1tY]

right click the drum sound in the browser and "open in a new channel" for each of the drum sounds. then commence to clicking your ass of until you get something that sounds good.

You can also download frere drum samples, just google for "free drum samples" there's some good korg and tr808-909 drums out there.

I think he wants to make a drum kit out of the drum samples in his browser. You guys didn't answer his question.

actually nas was on to sumthin'

If you click the small arrow at the top left of this panel you can access some additional commands:

Split Children - Splits the children of the Layer channel across the keyboard (starting with the root key of the Layer channel), assigning each layer to a single key. The root keys of the children are automatically adjusted, so they have the proper pitch when played through the Layer channel. This feature is useful when creating drumkits or instruments where each note has different sample.
Group Children - Adds all children of the Layer channel to a group (a popup window will appear to enter the name of the group). For more information see the Channel Filtering section in the Step Sequencer page.

Spindoctor there are a number of way to do this.

You can do layers, and since that's been explained somewhat, I woun't go into detail on that. Splitting the children on your layer channel will send each sound to a different key on that layer giving you what you want.

You can use the FL drum synth. Hope you bought it

You can also use the FL slicer- If you wanna use the slicer this is what I would do.
open up all of the drum sounds I want channels. sequence the sounds about one step apart or more til each sound is islolated to your desire. Then export it as a wav. Open a new FL session, open that wav in FL slicer, and slice it, when you slice it, each slice will be controled by a different key.

There are more complicated ways to do it which will allow you more control, but the more complicated the technique, the more words I have to use and I gotta run. This should be good enought to start wit though. Later

I thought he was trying to get all his drums on one channel, For use in the piano roll.
