Hey, your getting a nice sound out of those drums! How are you recording, mind if I ask?

[@JazzDrummersResource]

Thanks, Chris. I'm running a stereo overhead about a foot above my head and a bass drum mic about 6" away from the logo head, aimed right at the center. I used to have snare and tom mics, but I stopped using them since I was always muting them in favor of the more natural sound of just the overheads. It also should be noted that the drums are pretty cranked, which helps with articulation for those overheads.
