i am in the midst of recording a new rock song. the song carries a fair amount of dynamics with it and frequently shifts between the rimshot and back to a full blown snare hit. I'd like however for both the rimshot and the regular snare hit to be just as clear when they get recorded. I am having a problem figuring out how the two can sound close in level despite their dynamic differences. i suppose finding a compressor setting may be useful but I could use some tips to start. i have a fair number of decent mics so that's not a problem. as far as preamps go, i have a rnc/rnp combo, dmp3 and a joe meek vc1. any thoughts on recording the drums, ie compressor settings, particular mics to use, etc
