So, I'm listening to Ziltoid the Omniscient, and I am curious as to what Devin does as the drums. I know he does everything, which was why I was amazed at the complex drums, but thenI saw it listed as drum programming. What is this rexactly?

Drum programming is the use of a drum machine or drum software to create the drum tracks.
This probably belongs in the Music and  Musicians Exchange sectionWink

he used Tomas Haake's (drummer for Meshuggah) "Drumkit from Hell" sound base
Haake recorded each and every one of his drums and its available in a box set with a program....I'm pretty sure Devy wouldn't be the type to use the out of the box sounds, so I'm sure he tweaked them a bit

Those are the best sounding programmed drums I've ever heard, by the way.
