Well, the title is the topic

I know several free drumsamplers, but it seems that everyone has a main disadvantage.

SR-202: Only 4 outputs, just loads Mono Files. But many features regarding the adjustment of the sample.

RM-F: More outputs, but less features.

DR-005: Well, 6 outputs I think, but very little features.

Loopazoid: Nearly no features. But 8 outputs.

Are there any more interesting ones with multiple outs?
What are you using (if you use free ones at all)?

Edit: BTW, my host is Tracktion(1) (at least most of the time at the moment)

This looks interesting, but I haven't had a chance to try it out.

Shortcircit free has a limited polyphony of 2 (and you can't open more than 2 instances) - but is a very capable sampler and has multi-outs.
If you can live with the polyphony limit, you should definitely give it a try.

My favourite is SR202 (Just put some reverb & compressor on it to make the sound wider).

Well, yes, the SR-202 is really nice. Except the thingy with the 4 outputs and the only-mono-files capability.

This one does not have multiple outs I think

Dr. Fusion really is the bomb.
It comes with many samples and many presets.

I have used all the ones you mentionned at some point but I do not use them anymore as I have replaced them with others that are not freeware. They all had something good. I still have Loopazoid on my hard drive.

Dr Fusion is really cool and I use it.

Our own Quad Zamp is a lot of fun too. The freeware version has only one stereo output though but it has interesting features: 12 individual filters (with selectable types), randomizers, loads stereo samples, mixing grid and others.
The soundware version has 4 stereo outs.

What do you think is the "best" free drumsampler?
