This is what to do when your drum tracks seem lack of punch. Copy your drum track into another new blank track (simply duplicate it) and add compressor plugins to the new track. Apply a heavy compression on the second track (for example: ratio 9:1) and set a lower threshold (for example –25 db). You can also add eq plugins after the compressor to brighten the track someway. And now set the second track volume fader to minimal and move it up gradually until you hear the punch added to your first track. This trick works also for other audio signal such as vocal. What happened is the second (heavily compressed) track modify the transient of the first (uncompressed) track in someway that make the drum track sound punchier.
