Thats maybe old news for old cats, but I was not a big fan of this thing, and I did not understand the hype.
But wait. I judged the book too early.
Yesterday I recorded a slide solo and I was just thinking about a reverb that makes the overall sound more catchy. WOW guitar solos, thats where the EMT 250 plug in shines, it does not sound anything like a real space, but you know that sound from recordings of yesteryear.
Another good one by UAD but it depends on what you feet in a lot.

I'm trying to figure this one out too. It was decent on a vocal, but I wasn't "wowed." I guess I'll have to try it in other places like you said.

My experience has been that there is the solid state EMT 140 plate and then there is everything else.

I remember seeing the EMT 250, it looked like a huge Lionel train transformer. On wheels.

I use the UA 250 plug on nearly every mix. It is fantastic to pair it with other verbs to create your depth and dimension.

I love the UAD 250. I use it a lot for chorus and doubling. Throw the "hands down double" preset on (and tweak the width) and get instant "Life In the Fast Lane" vocal chorus.
Maybe that appeals more to me than others cause I'm a 70s production fan. But the larger verbs on the UAD 250 are excellent to me too.

Plates have a lot of uses, I'm amazed people don't talk about using them more. I've got to plug Hofa here, they have some IR's for plates for the IQ-verb and man I just am floored everytime I hear how close they sound to the old gear. There's something that Hofa is doing differently about modulating the tails of the IR's, they've found some magic dust here. I mean specialized reverbs like the UAD EMT Plates don't even sound as good as a basic plate in Hofa. That plugin should cost $1,000. I'm not even joking either. If you load the True M7 IR's in Hofa it sounds like a damn Bricasti M7 to me, They've really figured out how to make IR's extremely real and totally 3 dimensional. The dynamics of the IR feels better in the Hofa, the Eq and damming feel better, I just can't find anything else out there that can touch these guys.
