IRs for Convolution

Hey! Wanted to share some favorite IRs for convolution. Maybe you know one or both:

Echo Thief IR Library - I love this one! Strange spaces and structures make for great creative uses of Convolution.

PS1 Reverb: Impulse Responses - Did you know the first Playstation had reverb built into the console? I didn't! Well for a pay-what-you-want price you can get the IRs of the PS1 reverb! They sound great! And note that it's only the first 4 tracks that you want (those are the IRs) the rest are more showcase examples.

Convolution reverb is great, and one interesting approach is using Trash2 as a flexible creative convolution. With the moveable EQ, dynamics, distortion, and fx sections you can really explore wild textures and sound design with the convolution. Just note the convolution module in Trash2 truncates long IR samples, but you can still achieve a lot with it!

Hmmm, now I wonder if you could design a similar setup in Bitwig Grid, for like a modular structure incorporating convolution with distortion, tone and dynamics shaping?
