Say you make 20 key groups. Then you go and assign each key group to a span of keys. Example: making a drum program.
assign keygroup 1 from c1 to c1, keygroup 2 from c#1 to c#1, keygroup 3 from d1 to d1, and so on. Then you assing your samples to the keygroups. So if you assign a kick sample to keygroup 1, then that sample will play on key c1 and only c1. Then keep assigning samples to the other key groups.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Peace.
