I recently got a drum set for the studio and have been experimenting with mic placement.
I've taken the resonant head off the kick and placed a D112 inside the shell, about 3" away from where the beater hits the head, pointed slightly off axis.
I'm getting some snare bleed into the D112. I've tried gating the D112 and using EQ, but still get too much bleed. It's not real loud, but enough so that when mixed in with the other mics it makes the snare sound thin. I've tried reversing the phase on the kick mic but that just makes the snare sound mushy.
Maybe it's the UAD gate I'm using...don't know...maybe there are better ones.
Any ideas? Would putting some sort of baffle between the snare and kick drum work?
