Nice Dan Ill try on small wooden room today. I was rocking music club. I dont have a real plate yet... lol That is what I rock the REV1 for is a better plate. I feel like the plates sound almost too smooth. Not alot of the cha and sizz that I want and a healthy doss of whoooo which is cool, just very subtle. I used to use A plate on vocals a ton but thats just because I wanted it to be a 480 when I pulled it out of the box:) once I made my way to chambers I have usually been staying there for vocal ambiance and using studio A or clear ambiance to supplement it.
Sorry for using my weird expression words!

The only kind of lame in the M7 are the plates but even those are better then most. Lame because they don't sound like plates or because they're no good? If you just don't expect them to sound like a good EMT I think they're very useable. They are totally useable, and I do use them. They are the best I have at the plate thing. But like Rick says, they are missing compared to all the EMT's I've heard / used. Comparatively, they come across as lame. A real plate as more energy, size and sparkle while still being lush. The other things I wish they would do a model of is the BX20. Those things sound like plates. They rule as well.

Here's my experience as time passes and am more familiar: The Bricasti shines on sparse mixes where the reverb is a central part of gluing the ambiance/vibe etc. For modern dense mixes it is barely noticeable, unless you're willing to do a lot of bouncing, i.e. tiled room for the guitars, a small drum room for the drums (if you don't have room mics from a good room), a plate for the vocal etc. etc.. I just don't have the patience to do all the bouncing and then hope everything gels. So, for dense mixes I choose one setting of the Bricasti for my main verb and use plugins for everything else.
