Drum Mixing Techniques From the Pros

The pros in this case being you guys. I know that there is no one special formula for doing a great drum mix, nor should there be, it all has to be subjective to the current situation, but are there any go-to techniques that you use that really help in getting a great rich sounding or really stand-out mix out of the kit? I'm still new to all this so I love hearing what others are doing to get the sounds they need.

I've been apprenticing in a few studios in the Ottawa area and I must say, the quality of engineers there is quite sub-par, especially when doing drum mixes. I relocated to Vancouver so hopefully there will be a better crop to learn from out here. Anyway if anyone has something they'd like to share, post it up! I'd dig a good, educational read.
