We used the 8 builtin pre-amps. I didn't catch the name of tom or room mics but we used a <a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_KcCGgmBQFy4/R9D_sKjjC1I/AAAAAAAAAG8/G8-0LNBm5KU/s1600-h/IMG00003.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174917106061478738" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_KcCGgmBQFy4/R9D_sKjjC1I/AAAAAAAAAG8/G8-0LNBm5KU/s320/IMG00003.jpg" border="0" /></a>SM57 on the snare and an AKG D112 on the kick. The tom mics were Audio-Technica ATM250's (I think, gotta confirm that. They were definately ATM's though) and the spaced pair room mics were AKG C451. We left 1 <a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_KcCGgmBQFy4/R9D_IqjjCzI/AAAAAAAAAGs/kZvDCjiZIP4/s1600-h/IMG00002.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5174916496176122674" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_KcCGgmBQFy4/R9D_IqjjCzI/AAAAAAAAAGs/kZvDCjiZIP4/s320/IMG00002.jpg" border="0" /></a>channel available to use if needed on either the hi-hat or the snare. We decided after hearing our setup that we didn't need it (this time).
<div><div>The AKG D112 was placed in the kick drum about 4" to the left of the beater and about 6" away from the drum head, angled towards the beater.

They were 60" from the floor.</div><div></div></div></div></div></div>

yeah I am digging this stuff! Great info!
Di I asked him to post this here
Hey Dicarlo, my understanding is that forums are for asking questions and general discussion. My blog about my AE course is just that, a blog about what we have done at class. When I make a blog post, the site puts it on the front page, not me.
Kool, Nice info the the fellow muso's!! It's hard to tell from the picture what the tom mic's actualy are..(look like akg's)(c-3000b are an excellent choice) (shure beta 56 tom mic's are as well) the condensors (ambient)look to be AKG c-1000s (another primo mic).(audio technicaATM10)(superoir condensor mic)
Sometimes i would use two mic's on the bass drum..one outside 3 inches away from head(beater)(shurebeta52) and one inside AKG c-4000b (resonate)exactly as you discribed in your blog.
I see that there is no mic on the floor tom? (beta 52 and or akg's d-440)are a good mic's as well.
Glad your postin this stuff!! it's great info!!
