Can be used as Overheads for recording drums? With good to excellent results.

My best guess would be:

  • Beyerdynamic M201
  • Beyerdynamic M88
  • Sennheiser MD441
  • Practically any decent ribbon mic

Any other suggestions?
 
some people dig EV 635As as overheads... or the EV RE55 if you want more bass and treble... there is a guy over at tapeop that loves the beyer m55 as an overhead. {these are all dynamic omnis...}

personally i dig sm57s as OHs. i dont know why....

All four catagories mentioned will do the job just fine.
 
I think Tubedude should post a sample of a drum kit recorded with MD441s as the overheads.
