I like my recordings.
when I have to low the fader and give more trim or gain,
and when low the gain and up the fader?

You use the gain to adapt the signal in level to the internal levels of the mixer, so that inside the filter section of the mixer, all levels are the same. Thn you use the fader to adjust the relative levels of the sounds in the mix.
So, the gain should be se so that the input signal is just below distortion (0 db), that way you get as low noise as possible. Then you adjust the relative levels with the faders.

Gain Pot Adjusting
With the fader down low, send your hotest (Loudest) signal into the channel input. You probably have a "Clipping" or overload LED. Adjust the gain until the LED lights up, and again set it just below clipping (Distortion) "RED?"
Then you can bring up the fader (Slider)to your listening level.
*NOTE* This is true for all mixers, effect units, tape decks etc. The input should always be set first (Below clipping)then the output adjusted for levels and effects etc.

I like my recordings.
I have a little sound proof room, about 2.5 x 2.5 x 3 mts.
for the drums:
I will use one condenser mic for overheads (cymbals)
3 mics for toms, 1 snare, 1 hit-hat, and 1 in the kick.
is it good that I give less Gain and more fader for less
mmmm.... leakage?
I already do my homework about phase problems.

Less gain and more fader will not lessen the leakage, only increase the noise.
