are you sure of what you are saying? have you ever used a hardware sampler or you write assuming that digital is digital math is math so there shouldn't be any difference between a software or a hardware sample.. both are computer?
because i really suggest you to try, for example, an mpc 2kxl as you mentioned.. or something other..
and i suggest you to sample with the mpc 2kxl and to use their filters..
i spent years working totally itb without getting the sound i like, using all kind of processing and i spent 1 min last night to get my perfect kick sound (for now) with the mpc 2kxl and a novation drum station (808 kick)
the way you compress the 808 kick attack and the way the filters and the envelope work on it is totally unique.
personally i can't get the same processing using anything other via software. but even with the few hardware outboard i have (an 1176 for example)
