I’ve posted this in the VSL forum here:

But since it can sometimes take days to get an answer there, if anyone here can answer it please feel free to chime in.
There are a number of VSL percussion instruments that have alternative Left / Right key assignments, presumably in order to facilitate keyboard playing.
Should I assume that Left and Right sample sets are the same samples, or are they different?
I ask because I am setting up percussion maps in Dorico, and I don’t want to needlessly duplicate entries if the samples are the same. I only use the keyboard for note entry, not playing into a DAW.
