Drum Recording on a Budget: The New CAD Audio Drum Mics!

Can you get a good recorded drum sound without breaking the bank? I've tested this out with my microphones and the new CAD Audio drum microphones in my temporary setup, for a follow up to my "Budget vs. Pro Drum Microphones!" video (   • Budget vs. Pro Drum Microphones!  ).

CAD Audio were nice enough to send me some microphones that they've recently released, optimised towards getting a nice sound with an affordable price, and I was impressed! Let me know what you think in the comments, and what microphones you're using to record drums.
