Sorry I'm late to the thread. I put together a quick sound clip of an entire kit being recorded on the track,through one Shure 57, at the "heart of the kit", into a Tascam DP-24 and processed with Sonar X3. The sound clip has 3 parts: unprocessed drums, heavily processed drums, and the processed drums being used in a within a full mix with other instruments. I think for doing quick demos during song writing it can be quite usable, and can be done quickly enough so it wont kill the "vibe" when the creative juices are flowing. No drum replacement or samples were used with this recording. Omni condenser mics sound better for this type of recording, but a 57 will work fine as well.

If anyone is interested, I put a description of how I processed the drums and music on the soundcloud page.
