I'm trying to identify the drum kit(s) which are often used for those really heavy riffs that have a kinda 'rolling' effect to them.
Best example I can think of is about 2m43s into the song "The Only Time" on the NIN album "Pretty Hate Machine".
Almost sounds like a regular drumset resampled at a lower pitch and heavily reverbed. (which is possibly what it is?)
But I have a theory it might be a particular drumset?
Searching for a particular (thunderous) drum kit.

are you looking for loops or samples?

I would like to find out too as drums is one of my weak points.
Lately I have been using a DrumSynth named Dr Fusion which has a couple nice sets of sounds. I double it with some NsKit drums for added Fx.

for both of you I would suggest Drumkit from hell, but I can only speak of dfh 1. However kiss GM goodbye and you have to map the drums yourself. However I do have a cool template to save you time if you use vsampler.A couple nice this I like
Crash/rides
Left and right handed hits
Different beaters on the kick(s)
Two mic-ing techniques for every drum
Springless Snares
Very nice rim shots
Of course you have to use a velocity sensitive sampler. FPC will work fine, but you may have to use more then one, perhaps even three. But it works flawlessly with Vsampler...

Thanks hink, I might look into dfh, though trying not to spend too much at the moment (almost bought RMIV recently). So I'm looking to maybe just find some sample libraries to import (I assume LM4 sample libraries still exist?).
Still looking through presets for something similar to that NIN riff. This is probably ever so slightly non-legal, but I took a snippet of the song to try and see if anyone recognises the drumset:

After playing around with FPC, I guess the FPC "Aspermic", "Ingler" and "Merkin" kits (from Samplefusion set) could come close, with a bit of processing.
