Drums Panning?...

[Skinny Viking]

I kinda got stuck in the audience perspective way of panning so for me usually I go:

Overheads - 100% Left & Right
Kick - Center
Snare - slightly off to the Right, maybe 5%
Hats - Right 10%
Rack 1 - Right 30%
Rack 2 - Center
Floor - Left 60%

if I have a Ride mic I'll usually put that in just a bit from the Floor, so maybe Left 50%

any room mic would just be centered
