try sampling yourself:

farts yield terrific source material for D&B bass drums and basslines. try varying amounts of carbonation and lactose to acheive different natural filtering effects and intensities. remember not to wear a good set of undies.

vocal cavity does wonders for all sorts of percussive sounds. you might want to try the carbonation trick here, or possibly even helium. remember to take it small amounts and always let it out when you feel your eyeballs starting to bulge.

heh heh.

sorry, I probably wasn't very clear - what I mean is that I want to synthesize drum sounds on me synthesizer like. Bassdrum, snare, hats, claps and such devilry.

YOU'RE ALL LOVELY BOYS

For kicks, I don't use the osc much. Turn the resonance up all the way. On the amp envelope, use a very quick attack and release to taste. If you wan t a tight kick, set sustain to 0, if you want some boom, keep the sustain up, again to taste.

Use the amp envelope to manage the ratio of boom to beat using the sustain setting. Use a 0 attack and set decay to match the filter decay.

You need exponential envelopes, well they help. Its just a sine wave + noise and filtering, although if you find a neat way to emulate a titanium snare I'm all ears.
