Re: compressed snare without washy cymbal bleed?
There is the simple professional answer to this question. Use a de-esser. The top mixers in the world use this trick all the time. A de- esser on the main snare drum track can have a huge effect controlling hi hat bleed. You can then re-eq back in the high end you want on the snare drum after wards. This is the best solution for a badly bleeding snare mic. You can thank me later.
