"It sounds like you have everything you need for a good drum sound. Unless you're looking for a "non-standard" kind of thing. You can add all kinds of effects to drums to get some pretty odd sounds (phase, flange, a little delay on the hi-hat has a neat effect). I'm a little curious about the type of mics, though. You'll want to make sure the mic is suited to the task. 57s are always usefull for toms and even snares, but to get that good, fat bass drum sound that causes irregular heart beats, make sure you have
an AKG D-112, AT 25, of something that has a low freq. range and can handle high SPLs.
Tuning is very important also, based on the sound you're looking for. Jazz kits have the tendancy to have a more open sound (more ring) whereas rock kits tend to look more for punch than spedific tones. This is just a matter of preference. I would also experiment with the placement of the mics. I like to keep tom mics about 3.5 to 4 inches away from the drum with a slight angle to the player. This seems to allow the kit to sound like one unit, a controlled bleed. If you really like that individual control, keep the mics closer and directed more at the head and think about getting some Beyer TGX-5s for the toms and such: very uni-directional."
