Yes drum room is 3x3m, should have used a square really!!!
And yes the kit is setup so drummers back is to the back wall.

At least with those freq issues you won’t need thick corner traps- your 10 cm thickness across a corner would effectively get down to 100 HzSo this means your mics will all be mainly pointing inwards towards that wall when you mic up - to avoid cancellations from direct reflections off the wall, it should be treated for the span of the kit and mics including overheads.
The tri corner reflections floor to ceiling, and vertical corner to corner reflections along wall faces and across room are dealt with by your floor to ceiling corner traps.
However your lateral corners (top L across to top R) on each wall top are untreated and will reflect from same corners at wall bottoms down the wall faces (156Hz) as well as diagonal across the room bottoms (95Hz) plus top to floor to top across the room etc - you just need to see how much is going on after you put in the first traps. You may need horizontal top corner traps as well if there are ringing issues.
Yeah and also tame the high/mid clatter that comes with those as well.At least with those freq issues you won’t need thick corner traps- your 10 cm thickness across a corner would effectively get down to 100 Hz
