Good bleed is a lovely thing. I used to get awful bleed with Sm57's- and gating/filter eq's are all bandaids that make the kit sound disparate and cluncky - not smooth and unified as 1 instrument.

Gotta get the mikes with isolation/good bleed- . Since using a M201 on snare (hypercardoid) and Cad M179's on tom (hypercardoids) bleed is much improved and the bleed that is there is good bleed making the kit 1 instrument.
