Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it. The first one was done on Peavey 6505, the second on an ENGL Blackmore. I hope the guitar sound is not too dark, but I liked it at that time, now I feel it could have been a little more edgy. For toms I mainly cut out around 3dB at 560Hz, and boosted 4.7Khz (4.5dB!) and a high shelve on 6.8Khz (6dB!) as EQ. It's possible because you cut out the leakage, otherwise it gets too harsh on the cymbals. In the buss for toms I put a compressor with about 6dB reduction on the hardest hits. I hope it helps, it's quite alot of boost but it was possible on those toms I think.
