For less than 200$? Well, I don't know the prices there man, but you will be needing a set of mics and a mixer in order to record drums. Almost any mic can be used to record drums, but you can try some cheap specialized kits. If you can't find anything for that price, try to rent some good kit, or buy a set of ordinary mics, like some cheap shures and one bass mic and play with those. For less than 200$ there aren't many options my friend

Sorry for misunderstanding man.
Try out some Shure kits. They sell three SM57's, and one Beta52 "egg" along with mounts. I think you get a case with those too. These are really a standard, and going around 350$ for all 4 of them. You just need to get two overheads and that it for starters. -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

In mixing terms, you generally get most oif the sound from the overheads if you have them - they should givce you an overall balanced stereo mix, along with some room ambience. Then you add mics for individual hits so you can process them separately and add more focus. I would suggest, if your budget runs to it:
1. Something like the Sure Kit - use the SM57s on the snare and one for each of the toms, or you can douhble up on the toms. Obvously use the pod for the bass. If you want to go to town, you can mic the top and bottom of the snare (remember to swap the phase of one of them when you mix to avoid cancellations). Maybe one for your hihat. 2. For the overhead a pair of good quality condenser mics. In that price range I like Rode NT1As - also AKG C1000 is a good mic. That kind of combination is approaching how the professional studios do it - a usual drum-micing setup would have 9 -11 mics. Of course, you can get good results with less mics as JVM says, but I would pay some attention to the overheads. -------------------- Check out my Instructor profile
