too much eq on a kick really washes the drum out ,IMO, But I think Ima try that desser thingy, for snap with little bleed is it?

I tend to scoop low mids when tracking, and use two mics, one in one out. @ mixdown I'll throw an IBP onthe inside kick mic, tighten the two mics out(usualy using the HF center on the IBP, and adding a low cut inside on that same mic track post IBP on a para eq), and them its done, sounds like the kick. In terms of eq anyway, compression is a whole different thread.
