Justsomeguy: Hah, yeah. That's a cool idea but rock and metal is definitely the way I want to go where it comes to sound. But this way I both get a SDC and LDC pair. :) Maybe try one of the C02 as a "under"-mic (correct term?) for the snare and only have one overhead.

Justsomeguy: Sense the Samson C01/C02-kit cost only a little more then a single C01 or C02 I thought I could buy two kits (of course use two of the same mic) and sell the ones I don't like. :) And yeah, it's crazy how much cheaper it is in the states!

SM57 is a no brainer as my snare mic. However that Audix 6 would eat the rest of my budget. Things are so expensive in Europe. :(

Guitargodgt: Thanks for the suggestions, I'll keep an eye out for them in the future! JG96: I don't want to too low either. And as you said, you shouldn't skimp on overheads. Justsomeguy: You have a point there ;). What's the difference between the Samson C01 and Samson C02? This looks...

jimmys69: I understand. I'll be more precise in the future. :) When it comes down to genre, punk and heavy metal is the deal. Do you mean certain mics are better for ”this” or ”that” genre? The Samson C02 seems like a good deal. Justsomeguy: Yeah, buying almost anything music oriented on a...

Nice metaphor haha. I'm aware that no microphone can save a crappy sounding kit, but all that (tuning, heads, cymbals, room etc) is not what I'm concearned about. Since I don't knowmuch about microphone brands I would buy them at random if I wouldn't receive any tips or suggestions. ”What...

Hello, hello I'm building a home studio and have come to the conclusion that a low end drum set microphone kit might not be what I'm looking for. From what I've read I would be better off bying the microphones separate. I have an Alesis IO4 (phantom powered) so I only need four. Kick, snare and...
