Hi
If it's the typical snare bleeding into the tom mic...

I find that it's not so much the amount of bleed but rather the fact that the tom mic is delayed a millisecond or two compared to the snare mic. This can make phasy comb filter effects.

I like to put in a short delay on all the mics except overheads. Actually I use different delay in left and right channels. That way I can vary the delay to crank out comb effects.

So you might try delaying snare a couple milliseconds compared to toms.
Vary the delay and you'll hear the comb effect come in and out.

Granted, with variable left and right delays on all mics except overheads (I don't use room mics) it gets complicated. But very versatile.
