I have a little room with treatment, very small room, enough for a drum kit.
I will use the pro25 in the kick, sm57 snare, and I want to buy a pair of a small D. condenser mics for overheads to apply diferent stereo technics.

I think theres no need to mic the toms and the HHT because the small room.
(mics, mixer, soundcard, computer)
 
I would suggest getting a matched pair of either the Oktava MC012's from here http://www.oktava.com/

Or for a little less $$$ these here http://www.8thstreet.com/Product.asp?ProductCode=7466

Both are great mics. The oktava's are more versatile because of the different capsules available. The crown's are a great addition to any mic collection because they are just good microphones. I personally have access to a pair of nt3's and my drummer has got the crown's ordered. I will be getting a pair of oktava's for myself at the first of the year.:D
 
For about the last two months I've been using a pair of AT-4033s and have been very happy with the results. At $280 each I thought it was a bargain.
 
I'm trying to decide whether to buy a second C1000S(for overheads) and a 4033a for vocals, or to just buy two 4033a's, and retire my C1000S from full-time duty in my home-studio.
