Hi

I am about to use BAttery 2, on my first project. Mixing a demo song.
I am looking forward to.
Now i know, that here is a ton of software and samples out there to use, but i would like to use my drummers drums.
I would like to record it(sample each drum on its own) and the use it in mixing.
Now i need some help, opinions on how i should get it going.

The drums are quite nice (tama starclassic maple).
I would be recording them into Mindprint enovice mk2, trhough it's DI-mod, to RME FF800, and into Nuendo.
The room i will be recording is quite dead, i feel very comfortable adding the ambience(room) and reverb later on.

NOw with the questions:
Kick- Shure Beta 52. The Kick is 22', very deep, and want to record it that way. Any recommendations?

Snare- Kenny Arronof signature, very nice sounding.
I was thinking mike-ing it with 2 57's? One on each skin,

Tom-s 57?


OH, what to use?

High hat?. MAybe a LD condenser (AKD SOLTDTUBE?), or a dyn 441?
Ride?

Again i will be using it as samples, ading the whole ''schabing'' later on.
I want to record clear and good sounding drums.

Any suggestions?
