Condensors will only work if it's a REALLY nice and NON-SOPRANO drum...I'd stick with ribbons or (my new personal favorite) RE-10s, mic'd from beneath.
Oddly enough, I was recording pans last night, and I happened to set up an ATM-25 as a comm mic for the player (for no particular reason; it was just the first mic i grabbed), and that combined with the RE-10 from below the drum yielded a GORGEOUS sound when I panned them out.
For the record (no pun intended), soprano pans are a bitch to record. Don't ever do it.
