So, I've been having trouble getting a good bongo sound... Mostly, some pretty heavy plosives due to air coming off of the drum surface. I've been using an Audio-Technica AT2021, angled down at about 45 degrees. I've been messing with mic distances and such, but even moving the mic up a foot or so still picks up some of the air ricochet. Either way, this distance just isn't gonna pick up what I need it to (I'd prefer a more up close and detailed sound). I've tried an SM7 at close proximity with the built-on windscreen which works fine for plosives, but I'm not a fan of the flat frequency response on these drums. I really need the high-frequency boost from the AT2021 condenser. That's what makes it so great for overheads, hi-hats, and especially percussion, except for this one problem...
