I've been having fun using the mic in about the middle of the resonant head as opposed to right in the port. Seems to me to have a nice natural sound and the dynamics end up real even.
In school they taught us to put the mic right in there up as close to te beater as you can. I personally always find this sound to be crap. Funny what they can get away with teaching at an arts school.
Just to note, this is for my recording. Live you gotta get the mics in there.
