Are there any tips or tricks for reducing the level of the hi hats in the overhead mics? Like, is there a dampening or shielding technique, or maybe an OH configuration that tends to pick up less hat than others?
I've only got C4's to use as overheads, and they're top-heavy to begin with. I'm already playing the hats (AAXs) as softly as I can, but they're cutting through just too much .. And if I shelve off some highs, I lose the cymbals too.
