OK. I think your speakers are very bad. Or you're new to reverbs. But something is wrong here.

Please don’t read the above post. It’s a stupid one. Simply pass.

You would get a more interesting discussion if you'd stop referring to the UVI plate as "magic." They are birds of a different feather. The Waves plate is a model of specific Abbey Roads plates and part of what comes along with that is a certain color which isn't always appreciated but that may also be just what someone wants.
The UVI plate is a very flexible plate model that allows fairly deep control of interesting parameters including plate size and mic and driver positions. I wouldn't argue necessarily that one is "better" than the other, although to be clear here, Waves AR plate is not my favorite plate, they are just different types of products aimed at different customers.
I don't think that you can easily get UVI to sound like AR so if you want the Abbey Road sound then Waves is the better choice, on the other hand, the UVI product can produce some fabulous textures, I think that it's right up there with Blackhole in terms of an ambient producer's "must have" reverbs.

it's a doosie
if you think you can achieve the sound of UVI plate by using an FX chain, then please share that FX chain, and an audio example.

I have no dog in the actual hunt. I'm not shopping for plate reverbs.
The thing I use has different plates for different character. It's convolution reverb.

I'm pretty sure from your own words you haven't the least idea why someone would use a plate reverb.
I'm also pretty sure there are people that know exactly what they're doing who have made a decision to use one in service of making a song sound better.

And what are you going to use UVI plate on that you can't get the same result with any other plate and some sound design and engineering?
Are you going to be able to pick out which reverb is on which songs now? Because if you can, it's way too much reverb.

Now make a song and mix it and let's hear the "magic" that any other plate couldn't have pulled off.

All you are saying with your multiple posts is that every reverb is the same anyhow ^

Yeah you have, a waste of screen space absolutely. Someone who states they really have no interest in a thing and then postures and postures some more and some more again about how it shouldn't be interesting to anybody else. Muted.
