Need (Mick Guzauski's) Pop Ballad Snare

[TS-12]

looking for samples of snare (or whatever they use on beats 2 and 4) for pop ballads. like in Lara Fabian , Celine Dion, Marc Anthony etc Ballad songs.
Most of those ballads mixed by Mick Guzauski.

[TS-12]

or how to "create" one ?

Do you have any specific examples? Most of those types of songs usually just use a rim/side stick or a snare with a relatively long reverb. Linndrum or some of the calmer Roland R8 samples might be a good place to start

this is one example. (even tho not mixed by Mick) the first 3/4 of the song. especially in the first half where finger snaps, side stick and than "the snare" alternate:

so far I found out that some of the Drums samples were used from Synclavier.
Mick Guzauski mixed most of them, his main reverb for the snare was room preset from Eventide SP2016

For that kind of big reverbed powerballad sound I'd be having a look at NI Abbey Road 80s drummer Black Kit;

Here's a couple of the included patterns quickly strung together just through the Orilriver reverb 'large hall' preset.
