RE-20, RE-55 or U47 FET. I generally need to get way back from large drums.

Live, outdoors, in a stadium.............I'ld use a SDC made for toms, shelve everything from 1KHz down out of it, gate the hell out of it and then trigger it. That's of course if you wanted it reallllllly loud..........like make your guts and pants legs jump and move loud!  Twisted Evil  Otherwise I'ld do what Bob O said! Very Happy

Hard to tell without listening first.

is it played directly by a human, ie not remotely? then the SPL can't be too exteme or it would harm the player.

Mic'ing for naturalness or for effect?

The practice of forgiveness is our most important contribution to the healing of the world.

The standard of success in life isn't the things. It isn't the money or the stuff. It is absolutely the amount of joy that you feel.
