I've listened to them both and they are all great..=)My hearing has lost it's top end quite a bit so I'm not the best judge. 24db does sound a bit "sweeter" to my ears. I look at it this way, depending on the design of the filter, ie. what components were used (OTA's, diode based, transistor based, specialized IC based) does the additional cost and PCB real-estate justify any benefit. Given "most" drum synths are based on a VCO generating a sine or triangle wave, the need to subtract harmonics from it become negated. In a design like that the filters main job is to sweep or filter the noise component. Mind you, a couple of designs have used a self oscillating filter as the vco.
So for me, without knowing your design it is difficult for me to answer technically which I prefer. Other than that, go the 24db/Oct.
