slapback echo on drums
hi all, I've been trying out a slapback echo on some drum tracks I recorded and frustratingly it's "so near so far"
I've got pretty much the full sound off one overhead mic and it's pretty good in a Charlie Watts kind of style (playing and sound)

Programming Drums
Hi,
Would you say that most people program their own drums from scratch in a sequencer or do more people use samples and loops, or a combination of both?
I'm at the beginning of learning drum programming and want to get proficient as quickly as possible...of course.

Mixing Drums when tracked using 3 mic technique
I am looking for some advice when mixing drums using the 3 mic method regarding eq, grouping and general mixing techniques. I am challanged with getting the drums to have impact in the mix.
Eg. I want a little more air and I get a raging hi hat. I want to have a stronger kick and things get muddy or the bass looses impact.

My microphone choices:
Marshall MXL 2001 (2)

Octopre and Mics for drums?
I was planning on using an octopre to add 8 chanels to my 002 rig via the optic, and dedicate these mainly to recording drums. The pre has built in compression/limiting and 48v phantom on each chanel. Is this a viable solution and if so what array of mics should I be looking at to cover the job properly?
I will only have about $1500.00 to play with though.
