I find that they bring some low end resonance and spoil that range's definition. BTW, I do the same for the room track when one is available, since by definition those tracks add some ambiance, I try to avoid that ambiance in the low end. In my mix of this song, I HP'ed the room track @160Hz with a 24dB/octave slope.
I agree. The low end on the overheads is also without a doubt going to be out of time with the kick close mics, so there's serious potential for phase cancellation as well is LF resonances.
I'm grateful for comments and suggestions. Thank you for listening!
