I'm not Sascha, but I can recommend
1. Native Instruments Battery. I like it very much. It's easy to work with
and has some great creative possibilities. Also comes with a buch of
original kits elektro kits. But you have to be working in the style to
favour that.
2. FXpansion Dr-008 is also a very good drumsampler, with additional synth
drum modules en several levels of editing.  That's why it takes some more
time to master it. That's kept me from using it a lot until now, compared to
Battery. It's however more flexible than everything else on the market (and
has a very good price!). Not much working content included though. FXpansion
being a small company Sascha has a point in stating that user wishes will be
implemented faster than with NI. Although the guys at NI are also quite
communicative.

DR-008 can be considered as combining the best of both worlds of NI's
Battery (samples - no filter) and Waldorf's Attack (analog synthdrums with
filtering and delay effects) on a kind of 'budget' level. Don't get me wrong
about that. It's not a budget machine in that kind of way!

BTW: I downloaded the NordKit for use in Battery and DR-008 :-). Nice synth
drums!
