From Beginner to Advanced

yo wha's up...im an RB new guy but never new to hip-hop an sound...now i have fruity loops 3.4 which i have been usin for a year now....NO I DONT PLAN ON GETTIN A BETTER VERSION ANYTIME SOON.....its like my baby.... i groom it to my liking...but what im asking the good people of RB is where i can get some independant stuff and if it is even around....now where can i get some good synths....any sites where i can pick up some really thick sounding customizable synths.....my drum library is runnin low as well to me, i wanna get thicker drum patterns combining some kicks and snares an i need more drums, ive hit up everybody's free sample list and weened out the ones i dont like an beefed up my library...but im lookin for grimey drums, clear drums, jus everything i can get my hands on really......an if there is an independant mixer that i can pick up to distinguish my sounds more....caz the one fruity loops has is tickin me off to....my drums jus dont distinguish themselves like i want them too, so if i can get these from some people form RB then that wuld be appreciated
