mic techniques

[jomo_sundiata]

When I mic my drums(i use three), I use the "area mic" technique, placing two mics over all three drums. it works pretty well. I was curious as to what techniques you guys may have used, and whether or not you prefer a particular brand of microphone.

The sm57 seems to be a favorite

3 of them clipped to the rims.

It works like a charm.
