Well, if you like the drum sound of the mix in my signature, I can tell you it's almost 100% subtractive EQ and then parallel compressed to hell and back. My philosophy is just pretty much getting rid of all the junk so you're left with only the desirable parts. I normally run a normal 5-band EQ (my EQ of choice right now is the Waves H-EQ, but stock EQ's work good for this purpose too) for general tone-shaping (high/low-shelfs, some small boosts for 'thump', some broad cuts in the 1 KHz region etc), then a Q10 for some surgical EQ. More often than not I end up using all 10 bands on the Q10, and some cuts are like just -1.5 dB, so it's all very minor cuts that add up, so it sounds more clean and focused. Then I compress a bit (like 3 dB gain reduction) with fairly slow attack (25 ms-ish) and fairly fast release (100 ms-ish) and around 2:1 ratio. Then I send kick/snare/toms to parallel compression. Cymbal tracks are usually high-passed around 500 Hz, with a big high-shelf, and some minor broad cutting for harsh/annoying frequencies.
Hope that helped, haha. Drum mixing is a broad subject, so trying to summarize one's whole approach is kind of hard. But that's pretty much it!
