Do you need a drum machine? I just load individual wav samples into my sequencer (Cubase). Different track for each sound and route them all to a drum buss. Works well for me. Thousands of free samples out there.

Do you have a favorite set of samples from a favorite website?

Also, for me, its not just the samples, its the production of them -- what plugins do I use to make the drums fatter and stand out in the mix, but not interfere with the other instruments; where the drums "sit" in the mix etc. I guess thats a learning curve for a producer.

I really dig Poise for samples, especially because that's what's missing in Reaper, there's awesome stock one in Bitwig.

yep, I am aware of resamplematic. Its midi patterns, and causing the drums to be where they should be in the mix, and sounding as they should.
Anyone recommend any producer tips videos to help me get my drums sounding as they should?

Which could make things like clicking samples on pads (as many excellent apps do), a potential timing challenge, until you decide it is doable.

Therefore...

Excellent tweak-able drum synth.

If you want good sounds with minimal tweaking, get Native Instruments Polyplex. Sounds great out of the box.

Not really. There's thousands of free ones available. Download some and try them. Every producer has his / her own favourites. How you process them with compression, EQ, saturation etc also adds to the sound.
