Any sample set will sound mechanical, since as Mac said the midi data is driving the exact timing when the notes hit and how. It would take a few minutes but a drum track made with jamstix can be very humanized by adjusting the perameters in the main screen, and also by making a few minor adjustments to the midi notes, vary the velocity and timing ever so lightly.

I have quite a few songs with Jamstix track, and i can hear the difference when it jams to a song. The rolls, flams, and such are far more real sounding even having lags and variances in them as a real drummer would. Above and beyond that, and we might be listening a tad too much. Most people can not tell the difference. I have had people ask who played the drums for you.
