Plate echo/reverb the greatest studio effect of all time? Hmmm. I don't know. I seem to prefer a sizeable chamber of hard glazed London Underground tiles with hard glazed sewer pipes for dispersion and standing wave suppression, a full range speaker on one end of the chamber, and a good microphone going back to the board on the other end of the chamber.

Scott when it comes to reverb, sometimes you can have too much on your plate.
