1. Find sample, drop into new instance of Simpler
2. Turn up the Vel Setting to %50
3. Open up a new midi clip
4. Disable Grid(Press Ctrl + 4)
5. Paint in midi notes(Hit ctrl + b for pencil tool)
6. Quantize to taste(Ctrl + U)

Now it doesn't sound so flat anymore!

This is actually a really important part of making plucks and stuff sound really lush... If you quantise your midi too much you lose a lot of the timing differences between notes which make those sounds sound big.
