drum mics

[Brian-Idol]

What mics do you guys use on your drums, and for which drum/cymbols? I'm looking for some suggestions for drum mics ina reasonable price range, but with a good sound.

 

[Blue Bear Sound]

1 AKG D112 (kick)
1 Shure SM57 (snare)
3 Sennheiser 421 (toms)
2 Shure SM81 or AudioTechnica 4051 (overheads)

in my reasonable range:

Marshall MXL603's (2) on overheads
AT ATM25 on kick
Shure sm57 on snare
probably $350 for all

if your reasonable range is smaller:
get the Marshall Fox package from Musicians Friend and a sm57
put the 1000's with the ball of as overheads, the Fox mic on snare, and the sm57 on kick
$220

here goes

1 AKG D112 - Bass Drum
2 SM57's - Snare (top and bottom)
2 Oktava MC012's - overhead
1 Shure SM81 - high- hat
3 Audix D-2's - tom mics.

probablay could have used Shure's on the Toms...I tried AKG's mini mics that clip on...and I thought they sucked......just a picky bastard, I guess -
