Back to some general thoghts about the SOUND you use to double the Snare:
For more Tone i use a ringing snare tuned to the song, not necessarily at the same pitch as the original, but IN TUNE to the original!!!
Sometimes all you need is "gated noise" ...
For Punch nothing beats the originals (Linn, DMX, 909, 808)
Even low in the track added snares can create a more steady base for the live performance.
But having any kind of room signal of the performance to blend the samples with is worth more than a large sample-library
I'm stoned....lol
