i have always miced my toms from the top, and the results are fine, but I remember reading that danny carey's studio setup is condensors on the tops and bottoms of all toms (boy, that gets expensive fast!)... my question is this: is it common practice at all to mic toms from the bottom or from both sides? what is the difference in sound? which do you prefer? what about internally mounted mics? (such as the may system) should i consider outfitting my studio drumset with those? as usual, i'm sure i could answer these questions myself by experimenting.. but that's what you guys are here for, right?
