I hate close reflections on drums so I dont at all agree with the folks suggesting wood under the kit to 'liven it' - no, suffering with the 'low ceiling, early reflective crap blues' I took a tip from Loudist and put a very heavy carpet under the whole kit area, it stops the floor ceiling 'slap'
I also use cardiod patern OH mic's as close as possible to the cymbals / kit (to avoid ceiling 'bounce back')
Again, having once nagged at a studio owner to put wood around a small drum area to "liven it up" - (was a total & absolute failure, it semi ruined an already perfectly workable room) I now belive that "adding wood' in tiny studio spaces is totally DUD advice and is misguided, simplistic logic at it's very worst.
