I tried placing the sub mic 80 light years away from the kick and it sounds great! ... the low frequencies really propagate fully at that distance. I also tried putting an electron mic inside each atom of both drum heads -- it added just the right amount of attack. I had to use a quindecillion channel mixer, but I bussed all of them (plus the sub) into a single channel and it's phat.
Then, naturally, I converted it to MIDI and triggered Superior Drummer 2.0.
