Commiting to the stereo drums may not be the smartest place to save
tracks.Thanks for the replies.

Why not just put up two or three mics on the drums and tell the
drummer to make it sound good? If there are special things that the
drummer does that are important parts of the song - tom rolls, for
example, or little pretty percussion toys - you might be able to find
empty spaces on other tracks to overdub them later on.

If what you want is a good drum sound to keep rhythm, you don't need
to worry that you might need to EQ the snare a little differently
later on. It's nice if you can, but lots of good recordings were made
with fewer than 8 tracks.
