Easy Ways to Make Reverb IR's (Impulse Responses)

Hey everyone!

Here's a bit of a different video!
Some of you on the WPS Discord server have noticed that I have been experimenting with making my own reverb IR's for fun. Someone on there suggested I should make a video about it, so I finally did! And here it is.

I find myself having a lot of fun creating these and experimenting with different sounds to get interesting results. Hope this video helps you on your own IR experiments!

P.S: I'm not claiming to know a lot about Impulse Responses, but I figured out how to get some cool sounds using the technology.

Hi Xavier, thanks for that great video with clear explanation what you've done.
Sounds complicated but is very simple. The benefit of playing a loud broad noise into the room is that the room is stimulated at _all_ relevant frequencies of interest. The result will be far more independent from the tonal quality and color of the clapping. Again - thanks for that great tutorial!

Been waiting for this video. The "Hailstorm reverb" you demonstrated on Discord was spectacular and I'm glad you featured it here.

I really got a lot from that, man. I've heard you mention IRs and making your own but I didn't really realise what the potential was. Thanks, man!
