I recently acquired my first vintage amp - 
a '63 Gibson GA-30 RVT in very good shape.
It's pretty versatile and doesn't sound quite like anything else
I've played. I'd be happy to donate some impulses, with various 
mics / positions and amp settings, if somebody can tell me a good way 
to do it. How do you generate the impulse?  (I've tried simply creating
a sample with 1 frame at maximum followed by zeroes, but this seems
not to make it through the D/A conversion - it comes out as dead
silence.)

I also have some very odd impulses lying around somewhere if
I can find them - made by popping balloons in and around
some 20' by 5' steel tanks that were in the basement of
a converted industrial building I used to live in.
