Triggers. Some guys hate em, some love em. I always sample the drummer's set before I record it.

I like to run a trigger on the kick and snare (maybe toms) and blend it in with the actual track. Loads of EQ, compression, parallel compression... ect....

I try to get the dynamics out of the natural track and the consistency and power from the trigger. + you can warp triggers with eq better because their is no bleed.
