The first i'd say is, make sure you use the room mics a lot they will bring out the character in everything, especially the snare.

Compress each mic on the snare. Bottom with a fast attack and ratio of about 8:1 to get rid of the rattle. Top with a ratio of about 4. If you have any channel strip plugins use the e.q on them. I use the waves SSL channel and love it for most things.

Parallel compression is another really useful tool. Here is a step by step tutorial on it which is great:

Yep! Some people disagree but for me, parallel compression is where it's at! There's some other guides/plugin tips and recommendations so be sure you have a read of them too!
