Anyone familiar with this OH setup

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

While my dialup makes it hard to check out videos on line, it might be that
there are spot mics on some of the cymbals -A number of engineers (and
drummers) will do that...

What you're missing visually is an apparently non-cobbled off-white-painted
(mics and star-mount the same finish) 5-identical mics (look like somebody's
beercan) hung on a 5-armed radial holder mounted at a single OH point, all
mics in a sort of pentagonal array over the drummer's head.
