Unless you are using good hardware the sound of your drums really comes from samples not the sampler or drum machine itself.

If I wanted to work with software for my drums I would be using Guru + samples.

Guru is the ultimate tool for your needs. If you're on a tight budget, you should try iDrum. It looks bad but it's very good and easy to use. Then there's also Microtonic from sonic charge. It's all analog, though, so you get no sample play.

If you were on the mac, I'd say ultrabeat in logic express or pro, but I guess you're a windows user...

What's wrong with using FL's step sequencer and sample packs?

Honestly, I think you're going to be quickly disappointed if you pick up any vintage drum machine; Elektron's machine drum might appeal to you, though.

Nothing, but something like Guru allows for a lot more flexibility and creativity in my opinion. And it isn't too expensive. I would like a machinedrum from Elektron myself, but I think that is overkill in this situation.

I've been a long time Battery user and love it to death however lately I've been using iDrum and have been pretty impressed with it. I'd check it out.
