Default Re: Assuring your drum mics are in phase?

I always have the drummer hit the snare really loudly every 5 seconds or so and then the kick really loudly every 5 seconds or so. Not only do I make sure each channel is IN phase together, but I phase align them (if I want a really tight kit sound). Once aligned it's really easy to see what is and isn't in phase.
