Check the E-mu samplers, the filters are wicked.

yup... try an old esi maybe or an s2000...for other cool s/h samplers see the SAMPLER section lists - s950 is a great starter sampler too

well, here's a novation drumstation doing a beat with a supernova bassline... what gives it the fluidity is some subtle triplet delay on the hats & clap to get a roll to the beat... but so low it's almost hidden, plus reverb... plus some added harmonic distortion to mess up the drums a bit, plus some eq .... & compression on the kik, clap & rimshot...

whether you're gonna get a smapler or just stick to s/w, please do yourself a favour and check out:

http://www.phatdrumloops.com/old_site/full_list.html

(warning -- it's about 700k so give it time to load)
just download a couple hundred (!!!) breaks, and spend a few weeks chopping and polishing...
