The Behringers lately have been POS! My Local GC had 7 of 10 DOA right out of the box.
For the price range you are looking at....I'd check out the Yamaha MG32/14FX.

Well...you pretty much can't go wrong with a 58. The PG is the lower end in the 58 line. SM58 is the standard and the Beta58 is the newest in the 58 line.
For $100.....go with the SM58. |

Well here goes. If you have the tracks then go ahead and record all on separate tracks.
As to mikes....Audix makes some nice "kits" for miking drums. Depending on what your budget is, 2 or 3 Audio T ... |

I've used an AT Pro 37R right over the sound hole (about 8 inches) and a 1" condenser between the sound hole and frets (about the same distance)

I was thinking phantom power also.
I've used MXL-990's and after about a 15 minute "warm up" they quiet down and work fine.
