Having trouble with a kickdrum... DFH (including mp3)

So a while ago I bought the DFH2 (I'm cheap, I should have gotten Superior). I've been getting pretty good results so far but one thing that drives me nuts is that the stupid sampler it has doesn't have EQ. It has all sorts of envelopes and flangers and blah blah, but no EQ. On top of this, I can not output without drop outs. So in order to use it, I pretty much have a line out from my comp going right in to pro tools. This basically means that all of the drums are on one track. This pretty much sucks ass, but I like the overall sound of the DFH better than my old samples.

So anyways I'm working on this song now, and while the drums are ok sounding, the kick gets lost. I've tried EQing everything around it and it's better than before. But there's definitely not enough click for me.

So... does anyone have any suggestions?

Here's the mp3. Btw- it's some sort of metal alternative hybrid with trippy middle thing sort of.

 
I love that DFH I want it BAD!!! Theres no way to do 1 drum at a time? If you know the song you should be able to track it like everything else. GL, HF.

right, but the problem is that my computer can not handle outputting to wav, despite that it's almost twice the recommended specs for the DFH. Hell, I can't even OPEN it on the machine that I do all the pro tools on. I think it was poorly coded. Anyways... because of this I have to hit record in pro tools, then hit play in FLStudio and record the drums straight through a line out. So there's no way I could line up all the instruments correctly. And I can't even open DFH on my Pro Tools machine, so there's no way I could open it in the project file.
 
Ok so if its in Mp3 can't you just encode it with DbpowerAmp or something? What are you recording to? Tape? Sry, I thought you were tracking in Calkwalk or simular proggy. If you have problems outputting but your specs are twice the recommened somethings wrong there. I would just format the HD and start from scratch. And again I don't know the history of your machine?
