Thx! Not tried them yet, but I am wondering what the second load of IRs is? It just looks like a load of bands/songs and I don't understand how you would generate an ir from that.. I guess it might be able to model the overall reverb on the track but I can't see how it would be of relevance to modeling individual guitar amp internal reverb?

Those IR's didn't do a reverb, okay, they do as well a bit of reverb, some of them, but, they are most mean as a kind of EQ.
I haven’t checked out the second package, because my interest is more EQ'ing of amps (in the case of convolution), and therefor the first package is great. Just a kind of distortion before the convolver, and you be done.

Dredd created a lot of very nice IR-files, as well he is involved in amp modeling to, I remember I've read somewhere were he explain what the second pack is mean for, and how he do it, but I didn't have it parade right now. :-)

I guess the videos there will show a bit what you can do with them.
