    eliminating kick through overheads

    I agree overheads do add most of the sound but I tend to like my kick to have a lot of punch and snap and if your not recording in a huge room the tones most of the time in smaller rooms dont add what I like to here in my kick sound, in smaller rooms you will get more tighter reflections that...

    Clipping but not really?

    Adats usually have a tiny bit of headroom over max, so if you cant hear any thing wrong in the form of distortion you should be fine. PS. listen to it all by it self and make sure you dont hear the peaks.

    eliminating kick through overheads

    The way that I Keep the kick from bleeding is by putting a Blanket over the front of the kick covering it and the mic, I had learned this from some Pro Studios I used to record in and it helps a lot.

    Vocal Miking Techniques...problem.

    Also when she belts out have her back off the mic a few inchs or turn her head a little bit away from the mic. Pro vocalists know the techniques and use them on stage and while recording.

    snare and high hat bleeding....

    also you may have to put your hihat a little further from the snare so many drummers now adays put there hihats almost on top of the snare. And as Pratt said keep the mic angled away from the hihat.

    Problems with a mic'ing a metal snare

    I just misunderstood when you said you tried top and bottum on the snare. By the way its pin two and three that get reversed not pin 1 pin 1 is the ground. I was wrong with my guess.

    Problems with a mic'ing a metal snare

    In most cases when using two mics on the snare one bottum and one top mic you will need to phase reverse the bottum mic. if you try it you will probably hear a big differance, I f you dont have phase reversal on your board or preamp you can take an XLR cable and change the wireing on one side of...
