Sound Samples not the same pitch once imported to the Playlist?
Once imported into Playlist, click on Step Sequencer "SS", click on your specific sound, click on the "inst" tab, "right" click over the C5 note this will highlight this note in orange. Most sound samples are based on the C5 note in FL Studio.

How to set a sound sample to a channel:
Once imported into Playlist, click on the "SS" button, click on your sound, at the top right there will be a box with -- "FX" click in this and move your mouse up. This number will be the channel this sound is on the Mixer. After this has been added you can go to your mixer and add FX to this specific sound.

How to Quantize:
Piano Roll/Down Arrow in top left/Tools/Quantize
Shortcut: Alt+Q

Editing Sound Sample:
Once imported into Playlist, click on "SS" button, click on your sound, go down to where your sound wave is shown, right click, edit, after this it's pretty self explanatory just mess around.
 
Most samples Play by default on the C5 note, but are not necessarily In that note.

Good point. C5 is just the default root note in FL, but not always the note of the sample you are using.

A way to find out what note your sample is being played at would be to drag (or open) your sample in edison, then select the regions button (marked ABC), then select detect pitch regions. FL will analyze the sample and then tell you what note is the root note of the sample. Then if you go to your piano roll, you can simply change the root note from C5 to whatever note is the root note of your sample. Just find it on the piano and right click it. The root (the orange tab) will then move to that place on the piano. Bingo. New root note.

On a side note.....
I haven't seen you over here in awhile Mr5ambo. I have seen you over on GS lately, but not here...so welcome back man.

another way of doing this is by going to the "misc" tab, and the area where it says "Enable main pitch" click on the reset button below it

and if you don't want to go through the hassle of resetting the root note back to it's defaults... you can just right-click on a channel and load a sample, that way you wont get the high pitch sound from your waves
