    If you use FL12 you can also do it in there too if you use sampler. Theres a tutorial buy busyworkbeats called something like "new features in FL12" where he talks about it.

    I agree with Zenarcist. FXpansion Geist is still an amazing sample based software drum machine and you con automate almost everything including FX and groove quantize, swing for that matter. There are three ways to automate parameters: (1) on a per step basis inside Geist, (2) MIDI CC automation via external controller, (3) host automation.

    A word of warning though. Personally I find Geist to be quite complex. I was reading the manual and watching the tutorial and quick tip videos on youtube for days before I felt at home with Geist.

    Yeah Geist is the best and the beast for that. It takes two second to do your swing automation (you can even randomize each line live, by small incremential as it plays or globally, it's awesome), by lines in the sequencer, and there is a global and per engine swing template too with thousands of grooves templates you can get (groove monkey is your friend) on top of it. And that part you can automate in your daw.
    It takes a bit of getting used to I agree, but the manual is very well written and once you get use to it there's nothing quite like it.
    And Geist 2 is on the way, it looks very promissing, there screenshots of it on their forum ("Geist 2 will it ever happen" topic), the interface has been reworked, you can get the guru filters, global downsample bit crusher, etc. (Geist is on a maniac sale price right now...)

    I normally play my drum patterns in, so I'm not super experienced with this stuff but this is an idea I just had...If you're on Ableton Live, when you add a groove to a clip there's a parameter for how strongly the groove is applied to the clip. I imagine you could automate that
