[RWP] Impulse cabinet responses

[Scott Chesworth]

Ah, sounds like ReaVerb needs a little extra encouragement. Once
you've loaded the IR, come out of the fx window and use Shift+P to get
to the automation controls. The top two parameters there should be
called Dry and Wet. Dry is the level of unaffected signal that you'll
hear, wet is after the IR has been applied to the signal. At a guess,
ReaVerb is still playing you the unaffected dry sound, so crank up the
Wet control and drop the Dry down until you can't hear the unprocessed
sound anymore.

If that doesn't work, shout and I'll attempt it at this end to see
what's missing from the instructions. This is all from memory so far,
and my memory isn't the best lol.
