Hello there,

without knowing the room or set up it's impossible for me to say
without knowing the room or set up it's impossible for me to say which will work best on what but this is a guide as to which mic is good for which application. half the fun is experimenting.
MD 421 kick / toms
Oktava MK-012 overheads / hi hat
AKG D190C snare / toms / kick
5x Beyerdynamic M69N snare / toms / kick
- 1x Audio Technica AT4040 overhead / floor tom / kick (outside of drum)
