Hi,

for experiments you might also try my jack_convolve tool, which is a bit
simpler to use..

http://www.affenbande.org/~tapas/wiki/index.php?jack_convolve

BTW: the drawback of the convolution approach would be that it gets very
very expensive (cpu wise) at 

- small periodsizes
- long response files

The cpu load is antiproportional to the periodsize and proportional to
the response file length.

OTOH really percussive sounds are rather shortish i assume.
