| Well, one thing to try on micing the top of the snare with something like a sm57 is to have the sm57 pointing away from hihat, even if that means it is physically closer to the hihat.
Also some sort of foam- cut out a hole and stick the sm57( or mic of your choice..) thru it.. This should offer some additional padding on the back end.
Overheads are just as quilty. Postion the overheads to the point where when they are panned hard left right- the snare comes right down the middle.. |
