A gate and Dynamic EQ has always worked for catching the hihat bleed with my own recordings. It just wasn’t sounding right in this kick. When I ducked it, the kick got very pillowy sounding, which can work for a lot of genres, but metal needs that click.

For the sample: I used a plugin called DrumXchanger from Plugin Alliance. It allowed me to set a threshold from the source track, and simple insert a .wav of the new kick. Then it has a transient designer, filters, and a blend knob. Super useful tool.

Oh, now I understand what you did. Brilliant approach!

Yeah it will be a useful tool when I need it. It came with 4 drum kit sample packs, so I can replace/augment snares too if needed, as well as shells; though those don’t typically seem to troublesome. I was able to find a nice collection of metal kick and snares as well. I can also record a few of my own and use them.
