Im after natural sounding drums and I find that with Logic's Ultrabeat Im not getting the sounds Im after.
I have just visited FXpansion and their BFD Drum Kit sounds just amazing and is probably the closest I have heard yet to real natural sounding drums.

Is there any others I should check out?
Cheers.

Type "Doggiebox" into your search engine.
Download the demo.
Listen.
Pay the ludicrously small registration fee.
Download fantastic kits for nothing.
Relax - your drum troubles are over.

I have been pleased with the ns kit. It is a sound font... So if you can trigger that sort of thing... I keep it maped out in Metro..

I use LinPlug's RMIV.

For me - dfhSuperior from Toontracks.

+'s

• The most authentic 'real' sounding drums I have heard (although BFD does the same job I'm told)
• Humanisation is very VERY authentic IMO
• Does not use disk streaming which is still too ahead of its time (Native Instruments are you listening?)

-'s

• Very large library of 40Gb that has to be installed en masse. I would have liked to keep just a couple of kits on my Powerbook but that was not an option
• Installation process is more complicated than usual and advice is too fragmented on the Toontrack website

Why BUY?

If you write SONGS not tracks then this is all you need. You need a good sequencer too.
