Re: Drum overhead-problems
Is the room fairly live? Strong reflections, perhaps from the ceiling, may have a high enough level relative to the direct pick-up to produce phase cancellation. If so, deaden the offending surfaces or move the mics closer. Also, if you have strong reflections, you may have coloration due to the less-than-ideal off-axis frequency response of your directional mics. This can be fixed by using omnis, but you'll also get more of the room which I'm guessing will not be desirable.
