Hi, Another approach would be to organise with the sound people to get a direct line out from the audio mixer for the kick drum's microphone.
That way you could use the same audio input and avoid the bass. The audio spectrum tool is not precise enough to isolate particular frequencies very well individually, but another approach could be to use the mathematical expressions patch to combine some of the spectrum outputs. For example you could try using the lower frequencies of the spectrum when they are higher in volume than the other frequencies, or when a particular combination of spectrum outputs peak at the same time.
