How should I configure the Rock Band 3 pro drum kit for the most authentic experience

rock-band-3

I purchased the Rock Band 3 pro drums (the ones that come with the cymbal attachments). I'm wondering what cymbal to color configuration I should use for a drumming experience most comparable to an actual drumkit.

The instruction booklet said one option was to set up yellow->blue->green from left to right (when sitting in front of the kit), however, I have also seen photos on the internet with a setup of blue->yellow->green. There's even someone who's used a setup of yellow->green->blue in this question.

For what it's worth, I am right-handed and I also have an additional bass pedal from my RB1 kit. My only drumming experience is through Rock Band, so I have no "real world" preferences I need to cater to.

I actually asked this on music.stackexchange and what I learned is that this is the most standard and typical rock drum layout:

You can of course have more drums and cymbals, absurdly more, but that's the layout which most closely approximates a 'typical' or 'normal' rock drum kit. Anything less is a bit barebones, so the above picture is what you should be shooting for in your layout.
