Which would be better for toms, snare, and kick AE3000 or MD421 II?
I have one MD421II and I love it. I use it as a room mic because it picks up so much punch from the kick, it's amazing!
Any other opinions? What mic's would do a better job than these two in the same price range?
This is what I plan on doing:
AE3000 or MD421II on the top of the toms (four)
Shure 57's on the bottom of the toms (four)
MD421II in the kick
Audix D-6 in the kick
Audix D-6 Beater side
Audio Technica ATM25 clamped on the rim of the resonance side of the kick
AE3000 or MD421II on the top of the snare
Shure 57 on the bottom of the snare
AT4041 three as left, right, and center over heads
ATM450 three over snare, and to the left and right shoulder of drummer
20 mic's in all
