Of course there's variatons depending on what sound you're going for, but I personally try and use ported heads whenever I can for tracking. If you don't have a U47 layin around.. (sigh.. someday) The Beyer M88 is pretty amazing. You can just sorta throw it inside the kick itself and it sounds great. A phase reversed RE20 (or SM57 works too) on the beater side makes a really cool combo with the M88. Takes a little tweaking but you come out with a great big rock sound
