Here's what I struggle with. The reflected sound off the plexiglass sounds terrible through the drum mics. Also without *any* acoustic drum noise hitting the ears it sounds so artificial, tone wise it offends my ears. Not to mention the aesthetic ugliness of your drummer sitting in a cage.

We have a pretty small room, seats about 200, we play with no cage and it's pretty loud in there. MUCH louder than your usual worship service, which is fine for the type of congregation we have and the music we play. But I would like to get the acoustic volume of the drums down mainly for recording purposes. The bleed through from the drums to our 58s is ridiculous.

How effective do you think placing foam behind, on the sides and above the staqe, without a cage would be to reduce stage volume? I'm hoping it helps enough to make a difference and I think it should.
