Weak drum sounds...any quick tips?

[AudioMajik]

I'm dealing with drums from a couple of synths that are a bit dated. Anybody got any quick tips for improving dated snare sounds? The kicks I pretty much have under control but the snares aren't "popping" that well. They are synth sounding and I'd ideally like to make them sound more contemporary R&B but natural. I have quite a few plug ins but I don't have sound replacer. My only options are to work the compressors, EQs and verbs. I can do this but if anyone has dealt with the situation before, any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
