And it will always sound programmed.
Live drummers can put "feel" into every little motion. Try keeping a jazzy, off-beat ride cymbal riff going by programming it in. Of course you can sample but that was played live originally.
I used to record on an 8 track reel to reel a long time ago. I had a lot of fun doing that. Never made any money. I have been watching CL and ebay for similar equipment, just to lay down some tracks of stuff I created in the past twenty years. I don't like the sound of most modern recordings. CD quality is far undersampled.
What kind of equipment do you need to get high quality digital? It would have to be a lot better than CDs (44.1 kHz, 16 bit).
