Ledger did a script which can reorder notes according to their pitch.
I also hacked into it, producing a version that fit my personal needs. Maybe one of them could be useful to you?

Obviously, there is a limit of 12 samples, as we have such a limit on the number of note-columns. This is also why there is no such checkbox that you can tick - it wouldn’t really be reliable enough.
PS: Since you are talking about creating drum beats, I assume you don’t need independant control of the sample pitch?
Because then you might need to play around with macros and stuff
