Any Other Ideas?

Use what you already have. You don't need anything else. They did fantastic recordings in the 60s with only couple of mics. There was no need for that many mics back then so with a bit of practice you'll probably get great results with what you already have.

Shit I should have been more specific.i mean ideas relating to mic choices for each drum or room mic etc etc and placement,sorry for the confusion.

I've had decent success before in this room as i've had stuff played on A lists before.

My Room is 20 feet by 22 feet by ten feet high carpeted floor and wooden diffussion and rockwool at the bottom half of the room and 2 of the walls have heavy curtains on it.

sorry again about the confusion.(and bragging)

glyn johns method altered a bit.

Try the D6 and MD421 on the kick. RE20 or MD421 on snare. Fat heads as your two "over heads" (one above the front edge of the snare. The other same distance from snare positioned so it's looking over the top of the floor tom).

Then put up the oktavas as reinforcement room mics.

It takes a little configuring, but you can probably get a pretty cool drum sound.

Thanks Disinfor I shall give it a whirl they have a kick ass drummer which helps alot! really hard hitter and tight as a ducks ass.

anyone else have any ideas i wanna try and get a really punchy rock drum sound such as Les Savy Fav's Lets stay friends or Deftones White Pony

I have 2 weeks to spend on drums alone.
