Multiple samples - one or many synthesizers?

I need to play 12 different samples - one per midi note. Should I make 12 synthesizers or one with multiple voices and sounds?

I see the appliesToNote method that looks like a good filter, then I guess the system will pick a voice (I would make enough voices for each sound) and plays it? Is there a way to tell each sound to only play the ‘default’ sound (middle C I presume?)

Is it silly to even mess with a synthesizer vs just making 12 audio sources?

Thanks for any help and advice!

(Side note - it’s sort of a clip launcher I guess)
