I'd be thinking "drum machine" then ;-)

Failing that, I'd be hiring an 8ch mic-pre with ADAT out (ie Presonus Digimax) to increase the usable inputs in the Digi003 to 16 then tight micing the toms and hats, over and under on snare and two mics on the kick (one up on the beater, the other in the hole) and a room mic or two for ambience.

Should give you enough separation, control and options come mix.
