sounds to me like theres a reverb bus with a compressor sidechainded to the lead with a slow attack, but i could be wrong.

Side chained Reverb is Sex for Snares ...
If you dont wana get into the big routing hassel...
just take a Dry Snare sound, add reverb to it. Decay 2-3secs, room size 250-300, wetness somwhere between 10-25% then re-record that sound into another clip/channel.

Drag the new sound (effected) and cut off the tail i.e. cut the audio clip to just after where the big snare sound ends, then layer that wet big snare with another dry snare and you got urself a massive Snare sound (with gated reverb)

Way to complicated. A gate behind the reverb does the same thing and is better adjustable. The parameter "predelay" of the reverb does a similar thing as sidechaining the reverb (at least for drums).
