What’s your go-to plate reverb plug-in for drums especially for the snare ?

You can’t go wrong with UVI Plate. It can be any plate you want.

Agreed, UVI did an awesome job creating a very capable and versatile plate reverb. And for quick and dirty jobs, I'll load up Little Plate by Soundtoys or Radiance from Wave Alchemy.

I have a bunch of those types of plates as well: Soundtoys Little Plate, Arturia Rev PLATE-140, UAD Pure Plate, plus IK Sunset Sound and Fame.

What I've found is that any of those hybrid convolution plates might be perfect on one song, and horrible on another. The thing about them is each of them only does one sound and it is hit or miss (usually miss) depending on the source material. And you never know how each will work until you hear it.

UVI Plate, on the other hand, can always be tweaked until you find the perfect sound for what you need. But granted, it's not as quick as a one-trick plate, and the infinite number of options can be paralyzing.

I rarely use a plate. When I do then it is Valhalla Plate.

[Andreya_Autumn]

The important distinction here is between Plate-style algorithmic reverbs (like Valhalla), and (usually convolution) plugins imitating actual electro-acoustic plates. Very different sounds.

I use Lustrous Plates, not just for snares but for everything. If like me you enjoy the electro-acoustic sound more, you may also like Klanghelm Tens. The AKG verbs it imitates are springs, not plates, but they sound nothing like a typical spring reverb. Kinda halfway to plate territory if you will.

I also love Lustrous Plates, I've recorded in real studios with real plates and that plugin and the Transatlantic Reverb (convolution) remind me the most of the real thing. Also Eventide SP2016, while not sounding exactly like a plate, is one of my favorite reverbs ever for drum sounds, especially '80s textures.
