Hey there. I'm doing a session this weekend where the artist wants a jazzy sounding kit. My drummers going to bring a 16" floor tom converted into a kick, very small tom's and of course snare and cymbals. We have a 20'x20' vaulted ceiling/hardwood floor room that's empty for tracking and I wanted to capture alot of the room sound. THe ??? is, I don't have any matching Large Diaphram mics. I usually use a Neumann TLM 103 for a mono room mic, two MK-012's for overheads and then mic the snare, kick and toms accordingly. Would it work to use the TLM 103 and say a Rhode NT-2 for stereo micing though they don't match. Also, I have a Oktava MK-219, I could get another one and use them for the stereo pair. What do ya think? Anyone know of anygood books or sites that have drum micing techniques. www.sae.de is a pretty good one. Thanks
Jason
