B Format Conv Reverb - Not hearing a difference when I use my own IR files

I've tried drag/dropping multiple different IR wav files into the device, they seem to load fine but when I play sound it always sounds like the default impulses from when the device is loaded. If I'm using my own IR files do they need to be formatted differently? Thanks

Hi there - sorry to hear you are having this issue. I tested on my machine and drag/drop replace seemed to work okay, what platform and version of Live and E4L are you running?

If drag/drop does not work you may also try clicking manually the W/X/Y/Z buttons to the left of the filenames and replacing the files one by one.

The format should be 4 identical length WAV files, all in MONO. There are example files in this folder:
https://github.com/EnvelopSound/EnvelopForLive/tree/master/media/ir

Either of those sets of files should work. If you test replacing with those files do you hear a difference?

I'm on a 2020 Mac Mini with M1.

I think it's the identical length that was the problem. I was trying to mix-and-match a variety of IRs to get some intentionally weird results but they were all of different length.

Thanks for responding!

Great - glad to hear that was it, happy mixing!
