5. Mic Preamp
6. Room
It sounds like you are asking if there is something you should put in your chain between the mics and your preamp/interface. I don't believe this would help you...you want to record as dry as possible. You can do all your sound palette manipulation post production in Logic. Look at improving your techniques in the first four success factors and your drum tone chops will take a quantum leap...
MY TWO CENTS:
like I said I think all of these things are important I don't really see a need in ranking anything.
If any of these components are lacking guess what happens.....
YOU HAVE THE POTENTIAL TO SOUND BAD AND MORE LIKELY THAN NOT YOU WILL SOUND BAD
Like I said the best start to addressing these issues is to sit down and listen to your drumset in your room now. If it sounds good to your ears than start miking up, if not, write down a list of things you don't like. Heck post the list on here and we can give you potential solutions or suggestions. Then address each thing you write down. Say flutter echo is one thing you wrote down, adding diffusors to your room will be a suggestion. Let's say you think your cymbals are way too bright, a suggestion might be to try some darker sounding cymbals (maybe K series instead of A series for example). If it's the character of the mics bothering you sell the mics your using and go for another model (lets say your kick sound is bothering you with the D112 try a D6 or a Beta 52 or just get an Earthworks kickpad and keep the D112 lol). etc etc
Some things though may not be controllable. Quality of gear may not be an expense you can afford right now. So that's why I didn't say go buy your dream kit, dream cymbals, dream mics, etc.
