All of these FX samples I have as well as percussion samples are in different keys. Is it worth it for me to tune everything using the spectrum analyzer in ableton (top peaking frequency is the key right?) because right now they sound terrible together, or should I just only use samples in the key of my song?
I would generally just tune stuff as and when needed.

is there any harm is doing it every time though? (i’m a bit OCD about stuff like this lol)
I might suggest you save a copy named after the key you tuned it to, then if you use that sample in that key again, you won’t have to retune it. Make sense?
