But what I'm actually looking for is how to do it from scratch and get the punchyness without using preprocessed drum samples, by which I mean what to do with a basic acoustic drum sample / synthesizer to get the desired sound, if possible.
you can do it that way if you want, it just takes a lot more processing. I remember watching a dnb producer on youtube a few yrs back creating his entire drum loop using 'acoustic' drums from either Toontrack, Addictive Drums or one of those, can't remember exactly. If I can remember who it featured, I'll look it up and post it! I remember him doing a lot of multiband distortion/transient shaping & parallel compression.
Icicle does this on his Computer Music masterclass. Really good, really throrough. He spends so much time on the drum sounds, it’s amazing.
