"both Munky and Head isolate the cabs for their dirty Triple Rectifier offstage inside a road case, and capture the thunder with three mics: a Shure KSM27, Beta 52, and Beta 56"

According to the website U2 Atomic, Larry Mullen, Jr. used a Shure Beta 52 to mike his B-stage bass drum during U2's Joshua Tree tour.

In the video of Daytrotter Session where '68 plays, we can see Josh bass amp (for sure the amp linked to his EHX Pog 2 guitar pedal) with a Shure Beta 52 in front of it, captating the sound on a small (weighted ?) stand.

Andy describes his drum mic setup on a Reddit AMA:

"Well, these days I put my r44 up over the kick and run it through my daking mic pre/eq and that sounds really cool... I'm really into the simplicity of a one-mic drum kit at the moment

I'm not 100% sure what I was doing on Norm... I don't track with compression because it's too hard to play and hear what it's doing at the same time...

shure 52 on kick

sm57 on snare

I may have used a bottom snare sometimes? probably a 57 too... though sometimes d19 has worked well

421s on toms usually

for some of this record I was using an akg d19 as overhead... but it started to feel a bit harsh in my super dry studio so I switched to using an advanced audio c12 clone

Norm is all tracked on my C&C superflyer kit (actually combo of two kits). Same drums we've been touring with lately, gold/green toms from my one superflyer kit, and then the beige 20" kick from the other superflyer kit. I really like how those drums sound".

This microphone can be seen in the video where the band's technician showed Brandon's setup in detail.

For example, there was a time I had to make a decision on a kick mic and my options were the standard AKG D112, Audix D6 and Shure Beta52. But there was also a Shure SM7B not being used.

We use two mics on the bass drum: Beta 52 and a Beta 91

Bertrand Poncet has a Shure Beta 52 microphone in his studio, as mentioned on the Alias Studio website.

So I put a [Shure] 52 on the beater side, and then on the back side about two feet away, I had a Sennheiser MKH40. It can sound quite hip-hop, quite Timbaland when you get the EQ right. Nitin didn't want the drums to take up so much space [in the mix], so Martin predominantly played with brushes and rods.”
