Multiple drums, few AD/DA inputs

Complicated technical question:

First off, here's part of the setup I've currently pulled together: a Scarlett 18i20, a Behringer Rx1202, and a Behringer FX1202. (Behringer fit the bill literally at the time...)

Being a fan of larger drum sets, the idea I'm trying to hatch is this: say for instance I've got 5 toms mic'd and going into 5 separate channels on the RX1202. If I pan each drum (far L, some L, center, some R, far R) with respective EQ for each drum/channel at the point of the RX1202, and then run stereo signal to the 18i20 via two separate channels, AND THEN match DAW settings for each pan/EQ for the individual channels....

How much separation will that provide? Will I wind up with mud?

I'd try it myself, but the wife and I are in the process of selling/buying a house (soon to have a basement, thank God.)

Let me know what you think, or what might work better given the equipment I currently have.
