[LAU] in search of IR response files

Thanks for your lenghty reply, Jeanette, also to Christopher for the 
additional links. And the hint with the early reflections in the 
universe. Though a sound reflected from our moon in comparisson to the 
solar system might qualify as...

Anyway, the sampling rate of the files is correct, the same as jack is 
running, I'll check with the responses I have just downloaded courtesy 
to your links.

I've read a lot of good stuff about jconvolver, but it seems to be too 
complicated for me, in opposite probably due to the lack of a gui and 
integration in to the DAW. I've once seen a configuration file and could 
not figure out, what it wanted from me, so I'll passed on to freeverb, 
same here, so I went with ir.lv2, as I already knew that klangfalter is 
not supported with ardour.

I'll test and report, thanks again

Ede
