Sorry... think of these like rapid trills, or a really short drum roll fit into a quarter note beat.

You can do this in MIDI by putting 32nd notes in at very low velocities on the snare. Too high velocity it'll sound like a roll, but at low velocities it's subtle buzz stroke. In any event, it's a different tone color you can get from the drum.
