Here's my rundown on modern punk, which I record a lot of, as I play bass in a punk band and run sound for a few:
@ = "around"
Bass Drum: Tune the drum and stick a D112 a few inches from the inner head, off to the side, cut @ 400 to remove the "boxiness," boost @ 5K for the attack, compress according to the drummer you're working with, preferably there won't be a lot. Roll-off lows.
Snare: Mic the top and bottom, check for phase. Boost the top @ 250. Compress (If you habe a good drummer, slightly, otherwise...lots). Roll-off lows.
Toms: Mic the top heads, cut @ 400, boost @ 5K. Roll-off lows
Overheads: Cut the lows (utilize the roll-offs on the mic/board). Boost at either 10 or 12 k.
I compress the bass drume and snare a little. Sometimes the toms, if compressors are available. Otherwise I'll leave some headroom to do it in mixdown, which sucks, but usually works.
Bass: mic a 10" speaker with a D112, and take it direct as well, mix as needed. A LD mic on a 15 or 18, backed off a little can add some smooth lows. Compress slightly, to resolve peaks and unsteadyness.
1st (rhythm) Guitar: A D112 and a high output dynamic (like a beta 57 or a Sennheaiser 845) backed off a little, to grab the "mid-highs." Maybe a LD condensor a ways back.
Guitar 2 (leads?): A beta 57 or something on the speaker, backed off an inch or 8. LD condensor as needed.
Vocals: A LD condesor and some compression.
Anything else gets a small amout of compression and mid-eq.
Mixdown:
Drums are usually ok, maybe a little more EQ and compression to solve any problems. Snare gets a tiny amount of reverb. Really small.
Bass mic gets a boost @ 200-300. The direct gets a boost @ 400 and maybe some lows. A little more compression works, depending.
Guitars are usually ok, slight boosts @ 2.5 or 5k to bring them out some more. A little boost @ 800 (or higher) can add a little energy...
Vox usually get a slight eq boost, anywhere from 500 to 5k. Whatever makes them jump out. Compress as needed. Effects get added as requested.
Anything else, compress and mid-eq as needed.
Slight effects can bee added, but that's a creative point.
A little compression on the L/R sum can add something, if warranted.
Anyways, this is what works in my tight little basement, with my equipment. It seems to be a good template for unknown equipment at live shows as well. Adjust as necessary...its only a template. And if it sucks, figure out what works. I like the Fat Wreckhords/Epitaph sound...I can achieve that. But I can get whatever is asked for, as well.
That's a basic rundown of what works for me. I'm surprised I'm so winded, considering this is punk we're talking about.
Then again, I've won Jazz awards in school and have 10 years worth of formal theory and technic - playing piano, trumpet, bass, and drums. Hell, my rhythm guitarist plays upright bass in the University's orchestra.
Digression aside, here's my template. Destroy as needed.
