Aug 4, 2015 at 7:44 comment added lc. You might be able to put a mic behind your recording subjects to try to pick up just the cicadas. Record this to a separate track, then subtract it out. It won't be perfect and it probably won't be clean, but if you don't overdo the subtracting and you get lucky it might be an improvement?
