I'm pretty new to all of this but so far I've been happy with my reason drum sounds. The ones that come with reason itself were only "OK" I felt, but drum refill pack has some great sounds. You can go crazy building up your own kit or just use predefined kits. You can also go pretty deep into using diferent mics, or just use the "mix" option in which someone else has already decided what combination of mics sounds good for that particular drum or kit and done that part of the work already. I just go the simple route using "mix" and predefined kits and I've been pretty happy with those sounds. Also I have discovered that I have no ability when it comes to entering drums real time via keyboard so I jsut use the built in drum sequencer in "redrum" (the drum device in reason).
