Can I ask which drum sample instrument you are using? What would you recommend on the Windows side?

+1 for Drum Leveler, and also for Kevin's idea of replacement based on
a sample of his own kit if you can find a decent hit that isn't
swamped in hats. It's also worth pointing out (although probably not
to the drummer himself) that reinforcement is very different from
replacement. I've done plenty of mixes for sample sensitive drummers
where the original sounds are still in there and featured pretty
heavily, but reinforced with a sample that isn't obnoxious enough to
trigger their alarm bells. This works especially well if you've got a
decent knowledge of frequencies and can carve out space for the
positive aspects of the original drum sound to poke through. Done
right, they get to hear what they like to hear of their original kit
sound, but you get more control by using the sample reinforcement to
control dynamics instead of processing the hell out of their original
kit sound.
