[QUOTE="abquestion, post: 344984"]
Albatrocity thanks for reply. 
 I guess I didn't word my question in correct way and made mistake when wrote that they use ribbon ''on'' snare. I wanted to say ''and'' instead.
I'm surprised how these guys assign FXs, compression to close mics and overheads so that together they sound the way they sound- like processed loops or drum machines? 
   I'm 100% sure that they don't use any programmed patterns. The Roots drummer said this about his playing:

"I'm really into the game of making people guess, is it a machine, or is it him?''... ''I was really sounding like a drum machine. I would have arguments with people: no that's me playing''

I just found this video

It looks that he is using AKG on overheads and Ribbons. I can't identify close mics.
Also I found info that he sometimes use guitar amps as drum FX.
Any help to analyze the mic setup in video or possible processing methods will be appreciated.
