I'm still new to recording and have been messing around with mic placement on my drum kit. Recently I read an article about a simple and effective setup called the Glyn Johns Technique. I'm sure on HomeRecordings forums are familiar with Glyn Johns but it is new to me. It involves very few mics and easy placement. Doing this alone has made my drums sound so much better! Try it.
