I heard many of Dre's productions and I still ask myself where he get's his drumkits from, especially the snares, and what he 's doing with these... i mean, some snares sound like he recorded them in a studio, others sound like being sampled from some old 70s funk lp and fx'ed a lot.... of course he uses compressors, eq's and so, but where does he get the basic snare from,this open, hard hittin' snare? i love them so much, i want a snare like that! please help me
 
I would assume he uses drum machines such as the original 808, 909, and very likely one of the Akai MPC models.

dre has the most meticulously selected drum sounds in the hip . he also takes lots of time to eq and compress and effect each and every sound on every production. chances are that you can find a snare like his but how it sounds in a 'dre' mix is totally different. dre uses 8 mpc 3000 drum machine/samplers
