New computer, software to record AND assemble (Kontakt will assemble but has no actual recording capability), good i/o (plenty of multi function boxes out there), a slamming mic pre with a line level input, a good mic and time to kill and you're off. I do all my sample patch creation in Kontakt and edit my recordings right in my DAW or in Peak.  Lotsa ways to do this.
