I may go a little overboard... I use 2 MXL 604's and 2 Nyants for overheads. I mic all the toms with a shure 57. I use a shure 57 for the top of the snare, and an old EV mic for the bottom of the snare to get the crackle. On the kick, I use a Shure beta 52 and a subkick. This combo gives the drummer a lot of leway as to how he wants his kit to sound.
