hi there all. i'm recording a band with 8 mics a vs1880.the band consists of drums,guitar bass & keys oh of course a singer.I want to do the old kick and 2 over heads on the drums and 1 mic for the rest,I will be recording the band live in a rather large room can any one tell me of the troubles I will face in regards to spill (specialy with the over heads) and how much baffels (in my case office dividers )will heelp and or hinder this process. I want the band to be comphy with the set up and be able to see each other (for those esenstial nods and winks ).And should I splash out and mic the snare any help and thoughts would be great .
 
if my maths are right, you've got one mic left!!!! so go on, mic the snare, you know you want to :D seriously that extra bit of attack will mean the difference between nice drums and ok drums, imho of course!
