# setSamplerStates(_:lodMinClamps:lodMaxClamps:range:) Encodes multiple texture samplers for the compute function, specifying clamp values for the level of detail of each sampler. ``` func setSamplerStates(_ samplers: [(any MTLSamplerState)?], lodMinClamps: [Float], lodMaxClamps: [Float], range: Range) ``` ## Parameters `samplers` A list of [`MTLSamplerState`](/documentation/Metal/MTLSamplerState) instances to bind to the sampler argument table. `lodMinClamps` An array of minimum levels of detail to use for the corresponding sampler in `samplers`. `lodMaxClamps` An array of maximum levels of detail to use for the corresponding sample in `samplers`. `range` A range of indices in the sampler state argument table. ## Discussion> Important: > This method requires that the lengths of `samplers`, `lodMinClamps`, and `lodMaxClamps` be the same as the length of `range`. Calling this method ignores the [`lodMinClamp`](/documentation/Metal/MTLSamplerDescriptor/lodMinClamp) and [`lodMaxClamp`](/documentation/Metal/MTLSamplerDescriptor/lodMaxClamp) properties of the samplers, using the provided levels of detail instead. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
