I have had some good results recently with a single overhead directly above the snare |
ditto... this is pretty much exactly what I'm doing currently.
I also bought my own hats for others to use when necessary.
They're VERY quiet hi-hats and probably wouldn't work for most drummers in a live situation.. but they record perfectly.
I've also learned recently that I'll probably have to buy my own ride...
those are the two elements that I always feel are too loud in my own drum recordings.
