being a drummer since I was 5 (25 years ago)..and doing music with electronics and computers for at 10 years...this is a problem for me too...the thing I have found, is have a bunch of tracks..the more the better. for instance...I will take of of my drum machines..find a programmed groove that is kinda close to the feel I want..record the midi pattern...then take that midi track and assign to differnt synths..or samplers..then I will import audio samples of kicks and snares...cut n paste (dick james..authere ..style) and by the end I have about 16 tracks in PT....then I bounce them..( after adding fx..eq..all that..) and by the end I am happy witha drum track...usually by then its aboit 2 weeks after I had the inspireation to do the song in the first place. But..I find the drums tracks come out the best...and its a ton of work sometimes..but I need the drums to sound great..and I have to have that natural drum sound..the concept being..never play the same fill twice..and hit as hard as you can and make the drums just as melodic as a guitar...this post probably wont help you...but I would like to hear what other people do to make sweet drums tracks..
peace
