Mic the snare with a condenser--period. Hi-hats and cymbals can take ribbons or condensers. Try ribbons first--they're cheaper, capture the high frequencies very well and don't require phantom power. Toms can take condensers or dynamics. I would go with dynamics. Kick drums must be miked with a special low-freq dynamic mic. I would recommend the Sennheiser MD-421 or the Electro-Voice RE-20.
